Educational Testing Services (ETS), Princeton, NJ:
  • 2011 - Responsible for Architecture of the Image-Management System (IMS) of the Standardized Test-Processing System (for tests such as GRE, PRAXIS, AP, PSAT, etc.) for ETS. Architecture is Web-Services based (SOA). Images of scanned documents (tests) are captured from high-speed scanners and stored in a document repository. Spoken replies, multiple-choice answers and images from Internet-based tests are also stored long-term in the repository using Web Services I helped design. These images are retrieved using Web Service calls by the scoring systems. Also design and implement Web Service Client Applications to retrieve data from other Systems within ETS. Use Web Services Enhanced (WSE 2.0) Library, for implementing WS-Security for Web Service Client Applications.
  • 2010 - Designed and helped implement a Web-Based Error Resolution System for Scanned Documents from Testing Programs. Document images are captured by high-speed scanners, and OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) is performed on Multiple-Choice Answers. QC (Quality Check) is performed on the scanned Documents by comparing captured OMR Data with Image of Scanned Document. Documents that have errors (based on configurable Edit Rules) go through the Visual Error Resolution System before being passed to Scoring Systems. Error Resolution System is based on Microsoft .NET 4 Framework, with Oracle 10g Database, and Atalasoft 7.0 Imaging Software.
  • 2008 to 2009 - Responsible for Enhancements to existing Web Applications and Web Services. Given the serial nature of Automated Test-Processing, am heavily involved in interactions with “Upstream” and “Downstream” Departments for Requirements gathering, and Integration Testing of enhancements.
  • 2006 to 2007 - Created a Powerful Internal User-Configurable Reporting System, configurable using XML, for various departments within ETS to be able to check the status of the Tests Processed On-Line. Used ASP.NET, C#, XML, and Oracle Stored Procedures.
  BMW of North America:
  • 2006 - Designed and built an Intranet sub-site for the BMW Warranty Department. Created the Warranty Balanced Scorecard Web Application (J2EE � Java, JSP and Oracle), which ranks the performance of BMW, MINI and Motorcycle dealers across the country, based on a set of expectations that are set by the BMW Warranty Department.
  • 2003 - Designed and Developed an OnLine Ordering System for BMW Dealers. Requirements gathering, Architecture, Rapid Prototyping and Development. Helped create �Interface Contract� Documents, which translated U.S. business requirements into Technical specifications for IT Teams working overseas.The system is highly successful, heavily used, and praised as a unique ordering system by BusinessWeek magazine.
  • 1999 - Developed an America-wide Intranet Portal Site for BMW Dealers, called INFONET. Helped BMW develop strategies to dispense critical information to non-technical managers of BMW dealerships across the Intranet via the Portal. The site has quadrupled in size since, due to stability and ease of maintenance. The portal includes the following features:
    • Database-based Website Navigation and a tool to maintain the Navigation database.
    • Multi-dimensional OLAP (On Line Analytical Processing) Cubes built using the COGNOS OLAP tool. Cubes contain information about Vehicles, Dealers, Models, Sales Statistics, and Time-related data. The cubes can be viewed in report format, and drilled through over the Intranet.
    • Single-signon security solution to tie several Intranet and Extranet sites together, using Tivoli�s Policy Director LDAP tool.
Merrill Lynch:
  • 1998 - Developed a Unique Website Analysis Tool to Analyze Merrill Lynch's huge Websites. The Websites included both the Merrill Lynch On Line (MLOL) Public and Private sites, as well as their USA-Wide Extranet, Trusted Global Advisor (TGA). The Website Analysis Tool provided the crucial feedback loop to both the Website Developers as well as to Merrill Lynch management. Patented by Merrill Lynch in 2004.
  • 1996 - Trusted Global Advisor (TGA) project, a large Web development effort to help manage Merrill Lynch's $600+ Billion in Assets, and to give their Financial Consultants (Brokers), Office Managers and Compliance Managers instant access to large amounts of data, neatly sliced and diced to their requirements.
AIG:
  • 1994 - Designed and prototyped a large system for Reinsurance Risk Management; A highly versatile graphical tool for distributing and tracking coverage risk among different reinsurers. Used Visual Basic, Windows API, Microsoft SQL Server. Used sophisticated graphical algorithms for drawing the actual Risk Distributions, allowing user to change existing distributions and create new Risk Distributions.
  • 1993 - Designed and built 2 reporting subsystems (Inward Treaty & Unallocated Treaty) for Reinsurance in Visual Basic, Access and SQL Server.
