Jiang Qiu’s Experience

• Software Developer

  Avanade UK

  (Privately Held; 1001-5000 employees; Information Technology and Services industry)

  July 2008 — Present (7 months)

  Jiang was part of the pioneering team in the Center of Excellence for SharePoint 2007 at the leading insurer in the UK. Along with other members, he developed an online competition system based on SharePoint. The solution assisted the participating teams to generate ideas collaboratively and track their progress in implementing them.
  
  His technical input went beyond realizing customer's visions and driving best practices in SharePoint development to the team. Jiang also contributed substantially to the code maintainability specifically in Cascading Style Sheets by providing clean and concise style sheets.
  
  Furthermore, working with the solution architect, Jiang helped create the Agile development process around Continuous Integration on top of Team Foundation Server 2008. This methodology would act as a reference for future implementations.

• Software Developer

  Avanade Asia

  (Privately Held; 1001-5000 employees; Information Technology and Services industry)

  July 2005 — June 2008 (3 years)

  Jiang led a team of consultants to deliver a knowledge management system to a global investment corporation on the Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007 platform. The solution enabled their employees to collaborate using the SharePoint productivity features and web parts and allowed them to search into 12 Lotus Notes databases. He motivated the team to overcome technical challenges arising from the unfamiliarity with the Notes C++ APIs and eventually realized the customer’s desire for integrated enterprise search.
  
  Prior to leadership roles, Jiang acted as an individual contributor for delivering multiple systems. One of the projects was for FX traders who had outgrown the capability of a VBA-driven option pricing spreadsheet. Jiang helped design the migration to a WinForm-based application that closely mimicked the existing features such as configurable rates refresh and pivot ability. The new application performed close to 60% faster than the old spreadsheet.
