EXPERIENCE
Plumtree, San Francisco, CA June 03 - Present
Title : Software Engineer
* Involved in re-architecting the web-tier for the collaboration team using Struts, JSTL, Java and JSPs.
* Plumtree Collaboration Server lets people across the Enterprise Web work together on projects, setting schedules, assigning tasks, sharing documents and exchanging ideas and surfaces a wide range of collaborative services across applications in the Enterprise Web as portlets.
* Involved in migrating the UI from Model 1 to Model 2 architecture. Responsibility included setting up Struts framework, architecting, designing and developing the UI in the MVC pattern. JSTL along with developing of custom tags made customizing UI using JSPs easier.
Accordus, San Francisco, CA Nov 02 - Feb 03
Title : Software Engineer
* Involved in the design and implementation of web-based application using Java, Servlets and web services using .Net.
* The project was to build a 'Supply Chain Control' enterprise software, which allows companies with dynamic supply chains to adjust their operational plans in "real-time" as a response to changing conditions.
* The web-based rich client front-end was developed using 'AppProjector' software. The Asperon AppProjector is a technology that provides a real-time desktop like user interface for web applications. The front-end interacted with the business logic in the middle-tier deployed as EJB components. Oracle 9i was used as the data repository.
Listenpoint, San Ramon, CA Oct 01 - Oct 02
Title : Sr. Software Engineer
* Involved in the design and implementation of web-based applications using Java, JSP, XML, Castor and Struts framework.
* The Project was to build an Enterprise Product Planning solution to successfully solicit, collect, and act on the direct input of both customers and key constituents (partners, sales, support, R&D) within an organization.
* The front-end architecture was based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern offered by Struts framework. Data was passed from the middle-tier to the front-end in XML format, which was converted to Java objects using Castor, an open source framework from Exolab. Java Objects were then referred to in the JSP's using various tag libraries provided by apache. Oracle 8i was used as the data repository.
Menerva, Redwood City, CA Jan 01 - Sept 01
Title : Software Engineer
* Developing in Java, XML and XSL technology to generate dynamic web pages.
* The project was to develop fully distributed, Java-based Negotiation Market Suite applications designed to meet B2B marketplace demands of scalability, security, reliability and availability.
* The Presentation logic were coded using XSL/HTML templates. Data was passed to these servers using XML, giving a clear separation between data and visual representation.
* The business logic was written in the middle-tier using Oracle Business Components for Java The application services written using the Oracle Business Components framework can then be deployed as either EJB's or as CORBA Server objects.
* Oracle 8i was used as the repository for all market information and negotiation history.
