Sr. Consultant

7/2007 - 12/2008 Federal Reserve, Washington, DC

As an independent IT consultant I worked on re-designing

and re-developing of the legacy software that the Board

uses to collect and analyze financial data from all

districts. The new web-based n-tier distributed application

is developed using .NET, SQL Server and SharePoint to

replace client-server software that is currently in use. In

cooperation with the Board's staff I worked on requirements

analysis, new software design and development. I was also

responsible for coaching the Board's developers on modern

technologies.

Sr. Software Architect

8/2006 - 8/2008 Preferred Voice, Dallas, TX

I re-designed the Mobile Phone Services Suite product using

Service-oriented architecture (SOA). The new product

exposes its functionality in a form of Web Services,

allowing clients to use these Services in their products

independently from Preferred Voice's Web portal. Special

attention was paid to ensure secure transmission of all

user data between applications, using encryption, caller

authentication and other security features of the .NET

Framework;

I designed the core architecture for the Content Delivery

Platform (CDP) - the new prospective product the company is

going to offer to its customers. My responsibilities

included requirements gathering from the industry experts

and prototyping. CDP is positioned as generic platform for

mobile content delivery of any kind, whether it is simple

pictures, applications or streaming video and live TV.

Based on service-oriented architecture design will

accommodate for different telecom hardware and software

platforms, various types of content and devices and will

provide for easy performance scalability and high service

availability;

I was leading development and ongoing support of the

flagship product of our company: Mobile Phone Services

Suite. My major responsibility was the customizable WEB

portal that is used as end-user interface to the system

where subscribers can choose services and options they need

and pay for them. The portal is developed using Microsoft

technologies (ASP.NET, VB.NET, C#, SQL Server, Web

Services) and agile development methodology. Due to its

component design it can be easily branded to match customer

website's design. Designed with international application

support in mind, the ports can be easily translated into

almost any language with no extra coding required. And also

there is a WAP version of the portal that allows customers

to access the portal's most essential functionality from

their mobile phones.

Sr. Software Developer / Architect

2/2003 - 8/2006 Epsilon, Irving, TX

I created an email application that is used by several

internal and external clients to send emails. The

application consists of two major parts. Each one of them

is designed as a group of loosely-coupled components which

communicate between each other using Web Services (SOA).

One part handles actual email communications and includes

two multi-threaded Windows Services, SMTP and POP3 servers,

backend Oracle database, administration GUI and several

auxiliary Web pages. The other part is responsible for

design and generation of email contents and includes a

sophisticated Web-based GUI (with Email Editor, Scheduler,

Campaign Manager, etc), multi-threaded XML/XSL

transformation components and backend database. All the

components work on a dedicated farm of load-balanced Web

servers. All communications between the components occur

via Web Services. The application brought to my company

additional $1.6M worth of email business in the first year

only;

Under my supervision a team of developers ported the

existing middle-tier framework (which was COM-based,

written in VB6) to .NET platform. I designed base class

hierarchy, formalized conversion methodology and

established general technical guidelines to be followed by

the members of the Conversion team. I also participated

extensively in coding, testing and deployment of the new

framework.
