Senior Adobe Developer - Developer 4

T-Mobile

(Public Company; DT; Telecommunications industry)

January 2009 — September 2009 (9 months)

At T-Mobile, I am an innovator and a prototyper. My job is to collaborate with business liaisons, retail store representatives and many other members of the company to create innovative solutions for use in our T-Mobile retail stores. I also consult other groups within T-Mobile as an Adobe platform subject matter expert.
Senior Flex Developer

Ramp Technology Group

(Privately Held; Information Technology and Services industry)

May 2008 — January 2009 (9 months)

At Ramp I consulted with clients and developed highly scalable and stable Adobe Flex & Flash applications. For the most part I developed client side applications, but also needed to help out in the middle tier. This required me to quickly learn C# and .NET to assist my co-workers, and to guarantee that the project deadlines were met. My most notable project was a scheduling and tracking application for cancer patients.
Flash Application & Widget Developer

Snapvine

(Privately Held; Computer Software industry)

April 2007 — April 2008 (1 year 1 month)

At Snapvine I built high demand widgets and applications used all over the internet. My work is loaded millions of times per day. With that level of exposure, even a small mistake can be costly. I have to make sure my applications are robust and stable. Some notable projects include: VoicePlayer Widget, VoiceBlog Widget, Talking Photos and a viral sharing widget.

At Snapvine I also conducted focus groups with many different types of social network users. This has given me a unique knowledge of social networks and their users that is incredibly helpful for developing widgets and applications for said platforms.
