Goals:

I am available as a full stack software developer, technical lead, technical coach or architect for either short projects and startups / small organizations or large, but mature Agile teams.

Agile software architecture and development, consulting, Test-driven development, OOP, domain-driven design, building strong teams. Organizations looking to skyrocket their software production using modern Agile frameworks, architecture and development methodologies short and long term.

General Summary:

The majority of projects that I worked on have been greatly successful, even if they have been in a difficult situation before I started. All my New York metro area clients are left very happy and in a good shape.

I specialize in architecture and development of line of business applications (LOB) in Microsoft stack, either database bound or just-in-time and real time. My experience extensively covers all types of line of business applications: data entry Web- and Graphic UIs, services, reporting and business intelligence applications (data integration and interactive and ad hoc reporting).

I am a generalizing specialist capable of building IT and software from scratch.

I regularly produce reliable, simple, and easy to read, test, reuse, extend and modify architecture, design and code, and convey that knowledge to anyone interested.

I know how to motivate talented people to be productive and abandon sloppy development practices, automate and measure quality, and how to build trust between development and business. I had great success organizing effective Agile and Lean (Kanban) software processes and practices.

Generic and Business Related Skills:

•          Communication with technical people from other technical domains and non-technical users and project stakeholders.

•          Principled negotiation

•          Financial and insurance sector experience.

Technical Summary:

Object Oriented, Functional, multidimensional (OLAP) and relational architectures and designs.

Expert level skills and extensive experience with complexity management, Agile testable architecture and emergent evolutionary design, OOP. I am good with generalization and abstraction, complexity decomposition and restructuring, loose coupling, strong cohesion. 

Well versed in GoF Design Patterns and Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture.

Passionate about Agile architecture and Lean process, Test Driven Development (TDD), Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Refactoring (including database refactoring), SOLID principles and design patterns. Worked in eXtreme Programming (XP) team coached by XP co-author Ron Jeffries, coupled with several Agile training courses, Scrum and Kanban experiences.

Differentiating Services and Know-how:

•          Extremely fast and low risk development for line of business applications with top quality. I can bring to the table a huge competitive advantage in Web-forms UI and interactive reports development vs. any competitor, as well as quite a significant edge in logic and computations layer development vs. an average corporate developer. There are lots of reasons, but these are a few major ones:

•          Naked Objects MVC data entry WebUI framework (superior analog to Ruby on Rails in .NET world) including not database bound usage, custom controllers, views and View Models (http://www.recruitifier.com/).

•          Office365 / Excel Web-enabled interactive self-serviceable (user customizable) zero code reporting, dashboards and Excel data integration, using Excel with big data volumes in client-server and 3-tier architectures.

•          OData Web-services that support grouping queries and analytical work-loads. Exposing cubes as OData Web-services. SSAS multidimensional cubes and MDX.

•          Using multidimensional cubes in a way that allows to build systems for small and gigantic data volumes exactly the same way without any additional work like denormalization.

•          Avoiding validation and filtering code duplication between database, middle tier and UI.

•          Building 100% of applications and services in a type safe, refactoring friendly pure .NET way, with zero not-testable and change unfriendly code and like raw SQL or SSIS.

•          Applying modern Agile architecture to data integration (ETL), data warehousing and reporting. Side-effect free, testable, refactoring friendly ETL.

•          Test automation and code quality monitoring automation, test-driven and acceptance test-driven development, including unit-testable data integration (ETL with no database dependency), code quality control and metrics tools.

•          Building top IT teams from ground up: finding and selecting team members for all development related roles utilizing proprietary automated candidate resume pre-screening and ranking (http://www.recruitifier.com/). Process, technology and architectural coaching and consulting.

•          Scaling all sorts of growing problems in software development: growing number of users, data volume, team size, code size, domain complexity, combinatorial explosion of test paths, classes, database tables, columns and reports. Building data warehouses without manual denormalization.

•          Clear and effortless Agile release, configuration and project status management with a full isolation between features and environments, which is based on Kanban workflow with fully automated reversible deployments that are synchronized with:

•          database schema changes propagation and rolling back

•          deploy environments

•          configuration changes

•          source control branching

•          Kanban board work-items tracking statuses.

-Implemented using JIRA Greenhopper Kanban board, GIT, Gitflow branching workflow, TeamCity, Octopus Deploy, NuGet package manager, Entity Framework Code First DB migrations. DevOps.
