  Microsoft complete environment using Azure portal to publish and handle pipelines combined with docker containers handling multiple microservices. Frontend in React, backend distributed in .NET (C#) solutions, exposed APIs that would be in Azure functions (some of them Azure durable functions) and some others in Jitterbit APIs that would connect to an ERP (Salesforce). I had multiple tasks that would have a great range of technologies and responsibilities, Some would be doing small changes on the front end in a React component, sometimes update a Jitterbit project to include new fields or better logging and sometimes to create a complete Azure durable functions solution to connect to Salesforce using composite request to get rid off old legacy Jitterbit endpoints. Some of the new microservices created would have connection to Cosmos DB but existing ones usually had a connection to SQL server. Show less

  It’s a small company but handles huge amount of data across the globe handling payroll for multiple companies in all continents, they have some inside apps that are used by their direct customers (employers) and some other oriented for the end-users (payees), the applications are a bit old and use ASP.NET web forms the main purpose of my job is translating or rather refactoring the whole applications to MVC using the most up to date standards and best practices (i.e. dependency injection, small compact repositories, abstracting interfaces, DTOs, Models, Views, bundles, responsiveness [bootstrap], etc.). Since it is a small company sometimes the job entails checking a printer, changing a monitor and other IT work not very common to a software developer. Show less

  First started in a solo project as the only dev to start the project from scratch to migrate a couple of legacy PHP apps into a new robust .NET MVC app, a tool for the HR team to handle the hiring process and job assignments of new personnel, as the project grew and started being used more devs got involved. It was my first time working with kendo for UI; it had a SQL server database, integration with Salesforce, multiple grids (one of the best features of kendo UI) and also controls of dragging and dropping everything responsive that worked in desktop and mobile devices. Later I was assigned to work on to the main project in the company which is used to control and handle the whole life-cycle of requirements from US cellphone providers regarding new stations, antennas, repeaters, construction sties, etc. the app can track and handle everything to the minor details that might be needed; signing off documents, uploading videos as proof of the completed work on construction sites, interactive maps of the crews working locations integrated with weather forecasts, etc. It's an MVC app with Azure DB, we use Microservices, Docker, and Kubernetes to handle multiple tasks, Azure Media Services to store and handle videos and pictures, multiple integrations with google maps (some use Aeris Api to show weather layers), Redis to handle the cache, lots of Kendo UI on the front, Opentok to handle calls in between users, multiple integrations with Jitterbit and Salesforce, of course it uses API RESTful and Odata calls and multiple powerBI visuals.

  Immediately involved in the largest Latin-American project of the company at the moment which was for the Colombian government (Vivanto), was a high end project that involved in the front end MVC4 and whole lots of JavaScript and in the back end Entity Framework handled code first, using log4net tools for logging and keeping track of events of every action in the application; the communication between front end and back end was all through WCF REST services. The whole project required coordination since there were around 60 people working on it on 4 different countries at the same time. Moved on to other project for a marketing company in London where we create graphics and charts based on survey data to display to companies what actions should they make and what competitors are their greatest challenge a lot of complex calculations and statistics. The whole application was based on MVC4, it has Entity Framework, it had WCF but recently changed to OData, a lot of JavaScript/Jquery used with bootstrap, knockout (actually we removed the whole knockout thing and sticked to angular), angular and some other tools like sammy, the whole thing is worked on TFS with PBIs, tasks and controlled check ins. Besides these we also use Redis, AWS (storage, email) and RestSharp. The QA and Prod environments were on Amazon servers. Show less

  Hired as expert and leader of projects related to .NET integrating solutions with tailoring SharePoint to the clients requests that could not be met from out of the box SharePoint solutions. Since is a small company it required to fulfill multiple roles inside a project (architect, analyst, designer, requirement analyst, developer, etc.) Created public WCF services with high level authentication CRUD access to a SQL server data base, all was done so a SharePoint site could connect through BCS to specific data. Completed a C# development of Silverlight solution exposed through a SharePoint WebPart transferring large amount of data through WCF and basic web services. Sent to work in-sourcing to a vast Colombian pension company not as a developer but I was handling software providers (they didn’t do any software in-house), had to take care of hiring, evaluate proposals, negotiate terms, define scope of projects. While I was working as an outsourcing asset of the pension company had to create mediation and services since they were starting to use BPM (IBM technology), so we had a SOA government and canonical language defined to create al services in order to make everything available from an IBM bus, this approach was to make the company go forward into a cloud kind of thinking.

  Took the leap and changed from IT support to software development. As the company got the first US client they needed someone with people skills, a fluent and articulate ability in the English language besides the development capabilities in the .NET stack, I was the perfect fit. Adapted fast into development after coming from an infrastructure IT area. Did migration of code from C to C# that connected a state system of a US county (used by police enforcement agencies) using sockets that had an 3-way handshake authentication method that used the Huffman algorithm with additional parameters. Created RSS service to feed information from the main system to police patrols mobile application. Created PoC to clients to use Biztalk with the rules composer to create dynamic software configurable by the costumers allowing them to change business rules without the need of change request or other difficult methods. Worked on project that had the used Infopath on the front with C# based on Sharepoint on the back, multiple times had to work on creating flows with Nintex for this. Show less
