PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

2017

Authorization Service

SPH Analytics

Created an Enterprise Authorization API that is token and claims based to support distributed and heterogeneous applications with a centralized Identity. Each participating application can contribute to claims for use by other applications in the ecosystem.

2016

Self Service API

eSecuritel

Created an API for self service applications to access the same data interface whether the back-end processing application resides in their legacy system or their new replacement application. This provides a single interface for all of their client’s subscribers and gave them the ability to gracefully transition their clients to the new system.

2016

CRM and Back Office Suite

Generis

Built and host a replacement for their SalesForce.com implementation. The application manages accounts, contracts, invoices, accounts receivables, vendors, staff, contacts, leads, financials, calculates commissions and provides reporting. It also provides community, document management and video training features for their field consultants.

2015

Self Service Account Management

eSecuritel

Created a custom integration solution for DNN using their two core custom insurance applications to provide self-service access for subscribers to manage their accounts as well as adjudicate and fulfill claims online. This integration including building out middle tier web services (WCF), a Self Service API that created a single interface to access their two different back-ends and the custom DNN modules for the UI.

2014

Self Service Claims Processing

eSecuritel

Created a DNN Module to handle claims processing from their 60 partners and their Partner’s In-Store representatives. The application connects to the Enterprise Application through WCF SOAP Web Services. This module both Adjudicated and Fulfilled the Claim. Adjudication is based on decision tree data configurable by Context and Client.

2013

Public Portals Upgrade and Strategy

eSecuritel

Helped to define the architecture, design and all development of the company’s public portals. There are over 60 partner sites from the US, Canada, Mexico, Great Britain and Turkey. The portals use the Enterprise DNN Framework to provide content management where 85% of the content is using shared modules across portals in 5 primary language variants leveraging a responsive design that provides an intelligent UI across multiple devices.

Worked with Marketing, IT Infrastructure, Development and QA. Managed business requirements, determined the architecture, defined the hosting environment, configured the framework for maximum performance and minimum effort, API design / development, Web Service Development, Custom Module development and all deployments.

ista North America

I was also instrumental in rethinking and reorganizing the group into Investigation and Execution teams.

2010

Enterprise File Manager

McKesson – Relay Health

Architected a file management system that harvests files from various sources (FTP, SAMBA, SFTP, FTPS and UNC paths), stores them in a repository, has a file identity system, file routers and event logging. This is a unified system that replaces several single task applications for managing the thousands of files this group receives and manages daily. It is designed to scale up and out with multiple light weight Harvesters and Routers placed across the network and using C# and WCF to communicate between the services. Robust threading, factories, regular expressions, reflection and adapters were key to this architecture

2009

Incremental Billing Data Loads

McKesson – Relay Health

Designed and Architected a product that loads incremental data daily from hospitals to recreate their full dataset instead of the hospital sending full loads daily. Two key benefits are the reduced processing on the hospital systems and the ability to extract and blend data in various formats for different timeframes and blend the data with other sources.

2008

Performance Diagnosis and Tuning

McKesson – Relay Health

The company brought me in to diagnose problems with their core production application after the merger with another system. I determined the underlying issues, created a strategy to resolve the issues and spearheaded the development that allowed the systems to integrate successfully.

Product Manager and Lead Architect leading a team of 3-5 developers to build a platform to decrease time to market, decrease maintenance and increase stability of client systems. The core system was architected as a framework providing base web GUI and Backend Services including Security, Navigation, E-Commerce, Processing Managers and Print Adapters. The framework defined and implemented a skinning and plug-in model to quickly add new clients and business logic in a multi-tenant application.

Reduced the new client technology development time from 9 months to an average of 1 month.
