Senior Developer

JumpForward, LLC Chicago, IL

January 2010 – July 18th 2013

At the time I was hired at JumpForward I was one of two developers working for JumpForward. One developer left three weeks after the time I started at JumpForward leaving me as the sole developer. Working closely with the CEO of the company I was responsible for building and developing the technology team at JumpForward. I managed and led four to five other developers. As the Senior Developer I was responsible for building and laying the future technical foundation of the company. At the time of my hire there was an existing product in place that was coded very poorly and did not scale. It was also my job to design and develop the new system for JumpForward. My responsibilities at JumpForward included the following:

• Heavy JavaScript was used for the project. JavaScript was used to manipulate a wide variety of elements on the screen and was used to provide a desktop like experience.

• Utilized JavaScript heavily in the creation of our iPad within our web view in conjunction with JQuery Mobile to provide a native like experience. By using JavaScript in our web views it saved on a lot of development time, substantial money savings, and we were able to get the product out much faster.

• Maintaining all servers in the company. This included web servers, database servers, testing servers, firewalls, backup servers. As part of the maintenance this would include performing updates, migrations, etc. while providing minimum disruption to our customers.

• Design, development, and maintenance of all databases. Our main database consisted of over 150+ tables, 200+ stored procedures, hundreds of triggers and stored procedures. At our peak processing time the database processes over one million transactions an hour.

• Responsible for converting old code base utilizing .NET 4.0 and implementing LINQ as our main way of accessing data.

• The third iteration of our product I was responsible for developing and maintaining a NOSQL database using MongoDB.

• Implemented and maintained Team Foundation Server 2010 for the company

• Worked closely with CEO on vision and direction of the company.

• Developed and maintained an iPad application to complement our main product

• Developed and maintained all API calls necessary for our mobile phone and iPad applications to run quickly and efficiently.

• Developed and maintained a full blown API integration platform for schools to integrate with JumpForward. This included a SSO (Single Sign On) component

• Developed and implemented Twilio Mass Texting on our website.

• Developed and implemented internet calling using IfByPhone.

• Developed and maintained multiple in house client applications for running the business Our third iteration of the product was called JumpForward 3.0. This release was 100% architected by me and implemented by the team. This release wanted to achieve the following:

• Increase in speed and ability to scale up to handle many customers in a highly available, trafficked site. This was achieved developing a custom in house caching mechanism using MongoDB as the cache repository. The extremely fast reads in MongoDB and the memory configuration provided over a 100% increase in speed and reduced stress on the database by was less roundtrips to the database.

• MVC 3 was implemented into our existing Web Forms project to create a hybrid Web Forms/MVC architecture. This architecture allows for various parts of the site to be converted to MVC 3 as the schedule or need dictated.

• Our profile pages were completely rewritten implementing AJAX heavily in a MVC 3 Razor environment. This was achieved by making small compartmentalized calls thus reducing the footprint on the page with each request being around 15K or smaller. This resulted in high performance, reduced stress on the databases, and easier maintenance of the profile pages. It is important to note we went from having only two clients at the time I was hired to a $3 million dollar a year company and leader in the College Sports space with the products I helped develop or developed solely. I developed/architected over 85% of all the systems used at JumpForward. Senior Developer
