Continue my work on the Zycada's end user Console.

Responsible for everything that is user interface related at Zycada. Primary responsibility is the end user console which is used by our customers to monitor their networks. The console is written in React using Typescript and Redux. It leverages Bootstrap, ES6 and SASS. As part of this work, was responsible for specifying the backend endpoints and data need by the console. The console allows users to monitoring their network performance. It provides the tools users need to create and manage their networks. In addition, admin users can create and manage users, projects, API Keys (used to programmatically mange our networks) and certificates used in their projects.

Built a cross platform UI framework that implements the Intel Security Group’s UI guidelines, using Apache Cordova and AngularJS. Served as the User Experience and Design team’s development evangelist; assisting developers and UI designers to understand each other’s needs and perspectives. Worked with the McAfee Safe Family team to prototype new UI concepts.

Re-skinned the UI of McAfee’s suite of products in only 5 months with just 4 developers (including myself). This was possible because of the architecture I put in place in the previous version of the product. Received the McAfee Consumer 2013 Q1 ACE award for this effort. Wrote McAfee’s first Windows 8 store application using JavaScript. The app was pre-installed by McAfee’s OEM partners (Dell, Acer, etc.) for the initial roll out of Windows 8. In 2013 led the 6-member team that wrote the second version of the Windows store app. Was also SCRUM master for the team. This was one of McAfee Consumer’s first foray into Agile development

Led the development team that completely rewrote the UI and re-architected all McAfee desktop suites. Developed a proprietary object-oriented JavaScript framework. The new UI architecture enabled use of the MVC pattern to ensure strict separation of UI from application business logic (Windows services written in C++). The framework required UI developers to build up pages via DOM manipulation of the app’s embedded browser. Framework extensions were added later so server-side code could be easily embedded in the app UI. This created a seamless user experience for buying and renewing McAfee products. Previously the user had to go the McAfee website to perform these actions

Designed and implemented the UI portion of the WSC Guard’s Windows client. WSC Guard is an enterprise class (RADIUS) security service which makes it easy for small businesses to set up and manage wireless networks. WSC Guard’s client hides the complexity of setting up a wireless LAN’s access points and secures wireless access for the PCs on that LAN. The client is written in C++ and communicates with the WSC backend using SOAP. Designed and implemented large portions of the WSC’s member website. The member website provides users with subscription and billing services, network access control (ACL) and reporting. My final project was to simplify billing, subscription and ACL management. The WSC website was implemented in Java using JSPs, Struts, and Servlets and ran on Tomcat 5 with MySQL as its database.

Designed and implement a light-weight Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for tracking the development of Infinera’s IC chip. This multi-tiered client server system provides a web based interface that allows users to manage process flow, track WIP and collect engineering and test data on the manufactured wafers. The system was developed in Java using JSPs and Servlets and runs on Tomcat 4.0 with Oracle 9i as its database. Various design patterns were used in the implementation of the system included the MVC paradigm.

User Interface Architect for Visual IP InSight (IPI), a Service Level Management product for IP Networks. IPI is a multi-tiered web based application that scales to millions of agents. The system is implemented using C++, MS SQL Server, with Microsoft ASP technology. Worked with Marketing and Visual’s customers to define the feature set of IPI version 5.5. New features included support for broadband (DSL, Cable) and VPN. Led IPI’s web development team. Improved the tools for managing large numbers of network tests and services. Implemented a large portion of the broadband/VPN enhancements. Managed the outside usability consultants and graphic designers used to polish the interface. Designed the Service Level Reporting (SLR) application introduced in IPI 5.0. Developed IPI’s concept of service reporting which allowed data to be used by multiple customers, each with different service levels. Designed the application’s look and feel. Led the implementation team. Designed and implemented early versions of IPI’s Customer Care and Network Performance applications. Designed and implemented IPI’s licensing scheme.

Lead developer of the PowerPoint 3.0 installation program. Implemented all of the program's User Interface and large portions of the main setup code including all network installation code.
