EXPERIENCE

For over twenty years, I've served clients as a full-stack engineer, and creative/technology generalist. The majority of the projects being custom web based solutions, public and private, and almost always with at least one or two custom solutions per project – i.e. dynamic PDF rendering, real-time multi-user updates, dynamic image composition, text-to-speech rendering, etc. I have worked/managed local teams and globally distributed teams to produce mission-critical, highly available interactive applications and websites of all sizes.

Additional projects have included custom software, mobile apps, browser extensions, interactive displays, website/SPAs/SaaS development, UX/UI consultation, business workflow optimization/automation, SEO optimization, user-generated content campaigns, web3 connected applications/bots, telemetry/monitoring, and content delivery systems, machine learning/self-optimizing computer vision systems, and much more.

Though my primary work is software/web development, I provide other services as an MSP, including IT consulting and technical support, network installation/management (routers, switches, wireless), VOIP systems, cloud services, on-premise servers, security/camera systems, and, additionally, I provide creative services, including graphic design, marketing consultation, and music/video production.

Ideated, designed, developed, and implemented multiple interactive solutions, including multiple qualification/eligibility quizzes as well as real-time PDF generation, digital signing integration, UGC portals, microsites, landing pages, SPAs, and digital out-of-home experiences. Provided remote, cloud, and on-premise technical support, engineering, and custom software development. Was in charge of hosting, maintenance, monitoring, SEO and performance optimization.

Engineered and maintained performance-optimized AWS hosting solutions for high-traffic websites. Clients included Bausch and Lomb, Procter and Gamble, NYU, ION Television, PDI Healthcare, Roche Bobois, Miele, IDB Bank, and SlimFast.

Architected a content delivery system utilizing the BitTorrent protocol, including a management interface that is used to create and assign content packages to remote systems.

Designed and developed a multi-user, real-time monitoring system (front and backend, including microservices) to provide information and status updates nearly real-time, including projector and system status monitoring. Created live web interface for all systems on a single page. Server components were written in C#, Ruby, PHP, MySQL, and Apache. A lightweight network protocol was used to ensure communication across even problematic wireless connections. Custom serial drivers were written for numerous types of devices.

Designed and developed software suite that dynamically updates user lists and enables communication between various devices within wireless networks without reliance on a centralized server. Various types of communication including text-based messaging, file transfer and audio / video communication are some of the primary features. Developed software which collects video from cameras connected to wireless mesh-networks, using numerous protocols. Software patents for both methodologies (#20070200914 and #20090238096) were granted in 2009.
