1.              Web Honesty Website – Designed, architected and built customer-facing multi-tiered, SQL server-driven website allowing customers to manage account preferences. Emailed, GUIDed URL directs customer to site displaying account preferences. Content includes customized, tabbed, editable AJAX GridView control with minimal client side scripting. This projected was originally developed in .NET 3.5 then later deprecated to 2.0 as per business legacy support. Project lifecycle was approximately 3 months. Extensive unit tests and thorough system test cases helped ensure the fast project timeline was met amidst constantly transient requirements. . Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 3.5, 2.0, AJAX Control Toolkit for ASP.Net 2.0, 3.5, NUnit, SQL Server 2005 stored procedure handling consumption, updating.

 

2.              Heman Metadata – Company initiative to replace underlying, legacy infrastructure with “metadata” infrastructure driven by SQL server and automated services.

 

·   Active Rolling – a process maintaining the most active future contract for a financial instrument. This project involved a multi-tiered windowing service (database, application, web service, unix daemon) that runs multiple times a day in a batch context mirroring market state. The service maintains the current list of active, available and “interesting” (database-defined) future contracts within CQG’s metadata system for broadcast to subscribing client software. Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, windows services, NUnit, web services, SQL Server 2005 database triggers and event handling.

 

·                                       Options Windowing – Windowing is the process of adding option contracts to CQG’s internal metadata database for consumption by client application software. Options are windowed in via a Windows service that runs in a daily batch context. The rules for which contracts should be windowed are database defined, the currently windowed contracts are highly volatile. This service executes in a multi-tiered context alongside database, a windows service and Unix quote processing daemon all technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, windows services, NUnit, SQL Server 2005 database triggers and event handling.

 

3.              Options Metadata – Company initiative to drive processing of instruments (financial entities that may be associated with bids) received over data line feeds using pre-existing, large, internal “metadata” system to drive addition, pre-addition of options into the CQG application framework. This initiative spawned many projects.

 

·                                       Auto Add – This is a parser-based, multi-tiered (parser, web service, database) service that processes exchange metadata to add the financial instruments to CQG’s system in real time. Created web service to interface with UNIX exchange parser for updating internal storage database. Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, NUnit, NCover, web services, XML object serialization and deserialization, SQL Server 2005.

 

·                                       Pre Add – Pre-Add is a service that creates instruments in CQG's Metadata database before they are needed. Pre-Add only applies to things that expire (e.g. adding the December 2009 Corn Future when the March 2008 Corn Future expires is pre-add). Created four tiered windowing services (database, application, web service, Unix daemon). Extensive automated and manual integration tests were developed for verification. Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, windows services, NUnit, web services, SQL Server 2005 database trigger event handling, and application error reporting.

 

4.              Stress Testing Framework – Framework developed to test and determine maximum server load supported by company systems. I developed the message processing system between the C++ client and C# .Net server/data generation service built upon the company’s componentized unicast messaging (.Net remoting) implementation. Designed project components, classes in role as project co-architect. Project lifecycle was approximately 2 months. Technologies utilized include Sparx System’s Enterprise Architect (UML architecture and documentation application), C#, .Net framework 2.0, windows services, unicast & multicast message processing, XML object serialization/deserialization, NUnit.

 

5.              Data Factory Replacement – Initiative to replace the company’s data storage framework that retrieves and stores proprietary financial data. Project encapsulated conversion of 20+ year old internal system built in C, C++ to the .Net framework. Initiative canceled 3 months into development as server hardware upgrades running Linux proved further performance gains to be unnecessary (for now!). Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, windows services, SQL database integration via stored procedures, NUnit, NCover.

 

6.              CQG News – Developed and deployed CQG News, a componentized application suite handling the storage and transmission of real time news headlines, stories and metadata from financial providers. Joined company & project during its implementation; the subsequent project lifecycle was approximately 7 months.

 

·                                       News Server –Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, unicast and multicast message processing, windows services, SQL database integration via stored procedures, extensive NUnit unit and integration testing and development.

 

·                                       News Keeper – Windows service application receiving multicast data from News parsers for database storage. Duties included unit testing, development, integration testing, deployment, support and defect fixing. Technologies utilized include C#, .Net framework 2.0, unicast and multicast message processing, windows services, SQL database integration via stored procedures, extensive NUnit unit and integration testing and development.
