• I continued working on development of the next generation “program banner” for the DVRLite box and PVR box.

May 2013 – Nov 2015 · 2 yrs 6 mos

• (i) Worked on the development of the next generation of program banner. This allows the users to navigate 7 days in the past and future. I was involved in the design and development of the GSA based fetch mechanism and allowing the user to navigate 7 days in the future. I was the code reviewer for this feature.
• (ii) Development of latest version of PVR EPG to customer
• As part of this project we developed the new event synopsis screen with all the new options required on the screen.
• My responsibilities include suggesting a different approach for handling the options on the event synopsis screen. The new way ensures handling the variations between different screens, reusing the code across screens for implementing the same options and reduced chance of regression with addition of new options. Implemented new options on the event synopsis and code reviewer for the code developed by all the teams on the event synopsis screen.
• (iii) Delivery of latest version of DVRLite EPG to customer
• As part of this project we worked as an agile team along with the leadership team to ensure good quality of development during each sprint and building the product incrementally. We delivered the new Planner in the EPG screens which uses asynchronous mechanism of fetching the data from the middlewre.
• (iv) New EPG Guide
• EPG Guide screen is used to view the grid of services and the events List describing the list of events that will be broadcasted for each service on a given day.
• The new Guide replaces the existing guide and adds the support of Static focus and Moving focus on Guide and allows the clients to configure the layout of the services and events as per their needs without changing any code in the core area.
• My responsibilities include design and development of the feature in EPG, discussing and finalizing the interaction details with another layer so that requirements can be achieved, perform memory and performance profiling and suggesting the ways to improve it.

• I continued working on the design and development of PIP feature and guided other members in the team towards implementing the requirements of PIP.

Apr 2010 – Nov 2012 · 2 yrs 7 mos

• (i) PIP (Picture in Picture) functionality in EPG
• PIP feature allows the user to view videos from 2 live channels simultaneously. Another level of user experience was achieved by giving a PIP preview of the current event of a service while the user is navigating within the program banner.
• My responsibility was to understand the requirements from the user experience engineer, design and develop the feature in EPG, clarifying the design to a team member and reviewing the code before it can be checked into the main.
• (ii) Handling program banner development for Hybrid/ IP services
• Hybrid services are the services that are broadcasted in more than one frontends. Services broadcasted on IP frontend may support a buffer at the server end from which the user can playback the elapsed content.
• As part of this development I handled the requirement of displaying the frontends supported by a service, displaying the server buffer and users location in the buffer
