Experience
Software Engineer ThyssenKrupp Elevator, Inc. 1999 - 2009
Example Application: Elevator Safety Bulletin Compliance Tracking – Company needed a way
of ensuring that safety issues with installed elevators were repaired promptly.
Created database with (a) contact information for maintenance personnel in all distributor
offices (US, Canadian and international), (b) safety bulletin information and (c) installed
elevator information. Provided fields, triggers and stored procedures to log complete audit
information (what was done, when and by whom). (MySQL)
Worked with key department managers and established procedures to issue safety bulletins
and to determine the list of installed elevators for which a given safety bulletin applied.
Worked with executive management to establish procedure for certifying safety bulletin
compliance. Wrote memo which was then distributed to all branch offices and independent
distributors to inform them of new procedural expectations.
Created a program to automatically notify key personnel for each step of the procedure.
(Java)
Created a program to automatically notify maintenance personnel in each office on a weekly
basis of the list of elevators serviced by his office for which there were safety repairs
outstanding. (Java)
Created data entry screen in MS-Access (with plans to eventually migrate this to a Java
application) to log receipt of compliance certificates.
Trained office personnel to retrieve compliance certificates (sent via email, fax or postal
service), log them into the database and record them in the document management system.
Created reports to show various displays of safety bulletins, installed elevators and
distributors (MS-Access).
