PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Software Engineer, Tech Lead

Fiserv, Phoenix, Arizona 2003 to Present

Led a team of ten and designed all aspects of the document preparation system, using SOAP Web Services and Microsoft ASP.Net/VB.Net. This common/reusable document system saved three separate systems from developing their own document systems. Document mapping could now be done centrally, saving duplication of effort for every Credit Union.

Developed an advanced web lending platform to support Credit Union Lending using ASP.Net/VB.Net. Integrated this lending platform with supporting back-end web services that were previously separate systems. Supported nine Credit Union cores integration to Lending system, saving them development and maintenance by replacing their lending sub-system.

Participated in the analysis, design, and development of a second-generation Credit Union lending system using ASP/VB.Net. This replaced a client-server Credit Union lending system that had to be installed and maintained at each Credit Union site. This cut maintenance by removing the need to maintain each credit union's installation of previous lending system.

Engineered database-driven, user-controlled UI design/data store allowing end-users to add new fields and control where they were placed in the UI. Replaced the DOS lending system, modernizing the UI/client experience.

Replaced homegrown data warehouse application by developing a new data warehousing system (Exec II) under direction in ALC and integrating third-party tool. This allowed clients to write their own queries and retire an existing legacy system.
