National Australia Bank

EMS Nab Finance Expense Management System

I worked as a .Net Architect / Team Lead on a .Net 4.0 Silverlight project, developing a rich web client for the NAB financial services team to be able to run reports and view changes in financial data trends. This is an SOA application with Silverlight as the front end, WCF over EF4 for communication and data transfer, and SQL and SSAS (Cubes) as the data store. I ran an agile project using Microsoft TFS to manage source control, feature requirements, builds, unit tests and developer tasks. I managed a Development team, which comprises of team members who work on project tasks offshore. I set up the process of knowledge transfer with an offshore team to get them working as efficiently as their onshore counterparts, this saves the bank significantly on resource costs. This process has been so successful that it is being piloted as the blueprint for future offshore development.
