    • Ethicon Endo-Surgery

      Jan 2000 - Jan 2005
      Consultant

      I have contracted with Ethicon Endo Surgery (EES) consecutively for 5 years on 12 primary projects for the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) starting from definition, to requirements gathering, design, construction, deployment, and support. I have also helped facilitate the retirement of a few web applications. I have been responsible for full documentation ranging from project charter, use cases, object models, trace-ability matrices, as well as coordinating Quality reviews at the close of each phase of the SDLC. Because EES is a medical devices company, they were subject to Part 11 and Sarbanes – Oxley scrutiny for all of their web applications and I have participated in the rigorous testing and documentation for these requirements.

    • Fidelity Investments

      May 2005 - Feb 2018
      Principal Software Engineer

      I’ve played a key role at the beginning of the process by gathering business and technical requirements, designed solutions based on approved technologies, and cultivating initial estimates. I’ve been the primary actor during the development phases in delivering active prototypes and coordinating Unit, performance and quality testing. I’ve also seen these solutions through production delivery and phased upgrades. I’ve even seen some solution retirement and archival processes. Because Fidelity is a financial services firm and Ethicon a medical devices company, I’ve implemented compliant solutions to government and industry regulations like SEC compliance, Part 11, and Sarbanes – Oxley.
