Programmer/Analyst

·                      Created biometric timeclock and associated administration software for enrolling employees’ fingerprints, perform data reporting and synchronizing data between server and devices.

·                      Created multiple applications to synchronize employee, security and timecard data between our systems and ADP EZ-Labor using technologies such as ASP.NET, VB.NET, COM-accessible .NET class libraries and Visual Basic 6.0.  This has almost eliminated duplicate data entry and increased data accuracy.

·                      Created methods using VB.NET to generate employee paycard requests and paystub uploads for online access to paycards for the entire organization from MAS90 and SQL Server databases.

·                      Created and partially designed XML Web Service for Validex, using standardized HR-XML schemas, allowing clients to order employment background screening services through their HRIS system.  The solution also posted adjudicated results back to the client when services were completed.  It virtually eliminated duplicate data entry and greatly increased accuracy for the client.

·                      Designed and created invoicing application for XLC Services as part of an upgrade from an older DOS-based system.  This project resulted in a much easier workflow, better reporting flexibility as well as more presentable invoices.

·                      Extended XLC invoicing application to import swiped timecard data from ADP ezLabor templates.  This project eliminated hand-entry into our custom time-card entry application.

·                      Designed and created custom web service for client-initiated ordering of background checks via standardized HR-XML consortium schemas.  This allowed the client to order background checks directly from their HRIS system, thereby increasing accuracy and streamlining their process.

·                      Automated display of Motor Vehicle background checks on status reports by transforming XML documents by creating XSLT Stylesheets.  This project reduced our turnaround time for many states from 72 hours to less than three minutes.

·                      Helped design, construct, and implement new contact management software for processing employment-screening services.  Turnaround time was substantially reduced and accuracy was greatly increased since this application was implemented.

·                      Regularly consulted regarding technical feasibility of proposed enhancements and new functionality in the current environment.

·                      Presently support and maintain most desktop and web applications. These tasks include troubleshooting, fielding questions from internal users, analyzing business needs, implementing change requests, creating test plans, documentation, implementing change control through Microsoft SourceSafe and deploying new versions of software.

·                      Create a variety of ad-hoc reports for management of varying degrees of complexity that help them make quicker and better informed decisions about turnaround times, caller workload and service volume.

·                      Perform maintenance and added minor functionality of web site using ASP, ASP.NET, JavaScript/DHTML, AJAX, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and customized COM objects.
