Designed and developed various Spring-DM OSGI bundles for deployment in Apache ServiceMix as a tier component for a push notification system supporting PC, Mac, and mobile platforms. Integration work included hooking into Camel- XMPP for EJabberD messaging, CXF for front-end REST APIs, and designing data storage solutions for account management.

Automated an eight hour manual deployment of a server suite and database for testing purposes. Delivered a five minute manual process with four hour automated delivery. Reduced complexity and opportunity for manual error, with full logging and error notification. Solution was designed using Selenium, Bash, STAF, JUnit, and integration into VM Lab Manager’s SOAP API for machine management.

Worked on a team developing a PC solution for an application store built on top of OpenJDK and the Apache Felix OSGI stack. Created a Jetty front-end for the client to communicate to the locally installed solution through their web browser, accessing applications, PC help flows, and account management. The solution also provides a fully extensible stack for application development by third parties.

Provided support in moving the BCM project suite from a CVS centralized repository, built using manual bash scripts with no integrated artifact manager to a robust Maven build system centered upon an SVN repository with Atlassian build and project management tools. Also performed maintenance updates to an Eclipse RCP application, including updating RCP plugins as well as rewriting the application installer from scratch using NSIS.

Converted a legacy home valuation system capable of providing 30 vaulations per second to a custom RAM solution database capable of producing 15,000 valuations per second using a single server with an 8GB RAM footprint. Major factors contributing to the improvement included a new geospacial indexing architecture, custom RAM management, multi-threading techniques, and JNI bridging.

Developed a flood research application integrating many different data providers into an Eclipse RCP (OSGI) based application. Provided map synchronization and various research and geospacial toolsets to achieve pinpoint accuracy for flood plane identification.
