• I identify areas of our company's Operations department that have pain points or have difficulties that could be solved with custom software. Once identified, I design, develop, and support solutions that save the company time and effort. Projects include:
• Condor: an application used to record and then replay socket, serial, and HTTP/FTP data in real time. Massive improvement over existing ad-hoc tools, allowing simulation of captured sporting events with all data synchronized.
• Machine Outpost: a combination of a database, web front-end, and desktop client used to automatically track hardware and software information about the company's fleet of machines. Greatly reduced time required to determine what hardware a client is running when they report a problem.
• Lift: a preview and authoring tool for the company's widely used and proprietary animation format. Replaced unmaintained, cumbersome legacy tool and allowed non-engineers ability to view the animations.
