single stock, based on live and historical data retrieved from real time market data

feeds, market data database records

and quantitative analysis applications. This web-application is a component of a more

broad concept of a web-portal,

developed for prime institutional clients developed by Electronic Trading Technology

department of Mizuho Securities

Co. Ltd.

My role as a team member was to assess technologies that would be most suitable for this

project, develop prototypes

using Flex, Portal API (JBoss Portal, Liferay Portal), mix of HTML, Flex/Flash (for

charting) and AJAX (YUI, jQuery,

The project was started from scratch and finished in 6 months mostly due to good team of

developers, common

understanding of development process and good choice of tools and methods.

This project required deep understanding of market data, quantitative methods of finance,

knowledge of statistics as well

as close interaction with Electronic Trading department, bank's infrastructure team and

other vendors that take part in

this project.

I took part in an internal product development - a Search Engine coupled with a composite

database sources (including

OFAC-SDN) to detect and identify anti-social forces associated with Anti-Money Laundering

activities. I designed and

developed a JavaEE component for this product. This component allows to search up to 1

mil. names in the database

simultaneously. JMS technology was used to create multiple parallel searches and to

persist results in the database for

later review by the user.

Database stores information from newspaper articles that are analyzed by a special

Natural Language Parser. Names of

criminals found in this articles are processed by special rules (JBoss Drools rule

engine). Currently product is able to

analyze texts in Japanese and Chinese with more languages to be added: Korean, English,

As a member of international multinational transcontinental team of 10 people I take part

in development, programming,

user interface designing of internal HR Java/J2EE Web-application. This system is an

application written from scratch

as a substitution of a third-party vendor's product.

and web-applications design to

the project. Development process requires extensive knowledge of Java Collections

framework, EJB, JBoss, database,

unit testing and extensive interaction with business analysts and future users of the

system from HR department.

It will be used by HR staff to calculate benefits data of 1.500 employees of GS Japan

(commutation, retirement, rent)

and generate reports for other institutions. For GS it will be a more flexible, more

powerful, more precise, thoroughly

tested and robust substitution of a legacy vendor product with excellent prospects to

expand its coverage to GS China.

Roles: Web-developer, Web-master

Experience: Apache, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Ajax, XML, PHP, PHP-Pear, Perl, MySQL database

Development, programming, designing and maintaining the web-applications for Trust-Watch

daily network security

scanning service: www.trust-watch.jp. I was responsible to take over the process of

creating a web-interface for SIDC

staff to accept new customers, manage security scans, review reports and deliver them to

customers through www.trust-

watch.jp web-site.

This task required close interaction with security scanner developers and sales

department of SIDC and working in team

with them to deliver the service on schedule.

I designed and developed two parts of the web-application using PHP, MySQL, XML, HTML/CSS

and JavaScript

technologies. I was managing a small team of developers (1 web-designer and 1 PHP

programmer). I developed SOAP

web-service to interact with external partner who was adding new customers to Trust-Watch

web-site remotely. This

task was an unexpected requirement from management and sales team, and I m proud we

quickly found the solution for

this project and this new requirement didn t break our development schedule.

Interaction between Trust-Watch front-end (web-application written in PHP) and Trust-

Watch backend (network

scanners written in C/C++) was based on XML-RPC code. I was responsible to design the

protocol and implement it

into the code. This allowed us to decouple the whole system and make it more flexible,

extensible and reliable.

This Trust-Watch application now allows SIDC to accept more customers for network

security auditing and to increase

its market share of security services in Japan. Customers include banks,

telecommunication companies, media

companies and numerous IT companies.

devices (mobile phones) using

XML/XSL technologies. This application was using XML as content format and then it

converted content into HTML,

WML, XHTML or cHTML depending on the model of mobile phone that was sending requests.

This server could be

integrated with Exchange server to view emails, with RSS data feeds and any database to

make simple e-commerce.

Development, programming, designing and maintaining the Intranet web-site of Merrill

Lynch Japan Securities.

Xpedio/Stellent web content management administration, deployment and customization.

My primary task was intranet web-site for Merrill Lynch Japan (Worldnet Japan project). I

joined the project at early

stage and I was responsible for total design of the Worldnet Japan intranet web-site from

scratch: coding, web-design,

maintenance, training, documentation. The whole application was built using ASP (IIS /

Windows platform), Oracle and

Access was used to store content.

This task required close interaction with many departments of ML Japan:

Public Relations department was using intranet web-site to deliver news and articles

(special web-application

(Java/Tomcat/Oracle) was designed that would allow PR staff to publish news on the web-

site) .

Human Resources department was using intranet web-site to publish announcements about

courses and classes

Administration office was using web-site to publish day-to-day information for ML staff

IT department provided technical support to build the whole three-stage development-to-

production

environment: development servers, staging servers and production servers

Contingency Department asked for development of a separate web-site to provide their

contingency

information across all ML Japan offices.

All ML departments had some kind of presentation of what they are doing on the web-site

I also contacted web-masters of ML Australia and Canada and we created a global search

index (using MS Indexing

server) of ML intranet web-sites. This allowed ML staff to search information globally

from one place. Basically,

Worldnet Japan within 1 year became the first web-site everybody at ML Japan (Tokyo,

Osaka) was opening at the

beginning of their work day.

As a part of Core technologies team I was responsible for introduction of new

technologies to ML Japan. I was

responsible for integrating Xpedio/Stellent Content management system into ML intranet

web-site to automate content

publishing process. This would allow content producers to create content, publish it and

approve it according to

predefined workflow process. My skills in Xpedio/Stellent were used in Analytical

department to create distribution

system of analytical reports produced by ML analysts.

My web-development knowledge and good teaching skills were used by Human Resources

department to teach HTML

and basic web-development to ML Japan staff (approx. 150 people).
