New Dawn Technologies – Logan, UT SOFTWARE ENGINEER  Architected a client-side framework by customizing KnockoutJS, UnderscoreJS, RequireJS and adding the components missing to properly implement the MVVM pattern. The framework provides the capabilities to design a responsive web application for mobile to desktop, or to provide a mobile-optimized website by simply providing different views over the same view model. In addition to all modern browsers, the final application can run natively on Windows mobile devices, and using PhoneGap can also run natively in Android and iOS.  Architected a server-side framework in a legacy system using Java, Groovy, Hybernate, and JSP to implement a CQRS API exposing only

data to be consumed by the client-side framwork. Both client-side and server-side frameworks fit comfortably in the legacy application and provide a simple migration path to the new architecture as existing modules are re-visited. Maintained / Upgraded an existing client/server application consisting primarily of .NET technologies (Winforms, WPF, and WebServices) Participated in an Agile environment using Trello and other open source tools to assist our Scrum process, while telecommuting over 50% of the time.

309th Software Maintenance Group – Hill Air Force Base, UT COMPUTER SCIENTIST
 Redesigned the GPS Crypto Key application and API from a C++ to a C# utilizing modern agile software engineering disciplines, while supporting a COM interface for backwards compatibility. Provided technical leadership and guidance by performing training and mentoring to software engineers within the GPS Crypto Key team and other Mission Planning teams on agile design patterns, principles, and practices. Implemented user interfaces in WPF, utilizing the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) design pattern to provide a separation of concerns between the user interface and business model, allowing the software tests to be automated by unit tests and the user interface to maintained/changed independently of the core business requirements. Separated pieces of the application utilizing a layered architecture to provide maximum potential for code reuse, and position them for change to allow easy maintenance. Areas that are likely to change together are grouped into assemblies and seams are designed between the layers to help protect them from changes that occur in other areas. Minimized application debugging requirements by using Inversion of Control to integrate the GPS Crypto Key application with the Joint Mission Planning System, while also allowing it to run independently. Redeveloped large portions of the user acceptance tests performed to provide better coverage of requirements and reduce dependencies on the order that tests are run. Performed research and development on best practices to ensure an adequate level of security exists within the GPS Crypto Key application as most of it is now implemented in a managed memory environment using the .NET framework. Obtained training on the acquisition process and systems engineering process utilized by the Department of Defense.
