PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
07/09 - Present Consultant Developer
New York City Department of Finance, New York, NY
The City of New York is currently upgrading its Financial Management System (FM
S) to version 3.0,
a web-based application. This new system requires that the daily input from all
agencies, be sent in XML format. Previously, all input was sent from the mainfra
mes in fixed-width text file format.
My role as the onsite Technical Lead, is to spearhead this new, mission-critical
initiative. From the ground up, I have designed and developed the core transfor
mation engine, including an online interface, for each agency to easily configur
e their file format. Through an EXE run at scheduled intervals, the mainframe te
xt files are automatically converted to XML, governed by various and specific bu
siness rules, and sent via secure FTP (SSL) to be processed by the new FMS versi
on 3.0.

years. The easy-to-use online interface featured:
* an accurate, up-to-date inventory of all facilities, leases/sub-leases
* key contacts responsible for facility operations
* date-based milestones (i.e. lease expiration, renewal, etc.)
* rent expense and revenue per facility, or by aggregate
* operating expenses, insurance policies, and service providers
* calculation of carbon footprint emissions (manufacturing locations)
* original documentation in binary format (titles, deeds, signed agreements)

Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder Advisers, LLC - New York, NY
Daily Pricing Reporting System
Created an intranet reporting application, to provide current and historical rep
orting on
Mutual Funds and Index Funds, for internal departments and senior management. Ni
ghtly
data feeds populate the database from various sources (Bloomberg, StateStreet)
with end of day funds pricing data. Previously, this data was manually entered i
nto Excel
reports, for both trend analysis and performance reporting, with each day's repo
rt stored separately. Upper management requested that a secured, centralized web
-based reporting platform be built, to eliminate the need for manual data entry,
show historical fund performance, and automate report distribution to both inte
rnal and external users.

11/06 - 6/07 Senior Developer (AVP)
Merrill Lynch - New York, NY
Sales Analytics Reporting System
The Fixed Income Sales group bids on pools of loans. The awarded bids are then s
ecuritized,
and re-issued as mortgage-backed securities at market.
Provides current and historical reporting for the three desks of the Fixed Incom
e Sales group
and senior management regarding bid status, and bids won and lost.
Previously, management had received manually generated Excel bid reports. These
reports contain current information only and provide no historical or trend anal
ysis. The main goal is to track both sales force performance and bid trends over
a period of time. All users will be
provided with the analytical tools they need, to identify opportunities for impr
ovement and
areas of concern, both at the salesperson and pool characteristic level.
Just released to production, the new web-based version of 'SAR' provides an easy
to use reporting portal, with the following features:
* basic and advanced search filter criteria
* the ability to save and name custom reports, per-user
* the ability to export reports to various formats (PDF, Excel, etc)

Bonds Order Management System
RCTM (Rafferty Capital Trades Manager) is a web based solution whose aim is twof
old: eliminating all limitations of the legacy desktop application, as well as p
roviding new, optimal functionality to broker and management end users. A contin
uing effort, with the end goal being the complete replacement of the desktop app
lication, through phased releases.
In-depth analysis of legacy application revealed key areas for improvement, name
ly: monolithic EXE logic, single-user support, lack of business rules enforcemen
t, lack of error handling and recovery, redundant data in database tier, slow pe
rformance.
The benefits of redesign include: a clean separation of logic into structured, m
odular tiers, multi-user support, business rules enforcement at all tier levels,
normalization and performance optimization of the database tier, usage of web c
ache, fast application response time, intuitive user-interface, UI enhancements
for automatic data entry, real-time error alerts sent by separate application, w
hich polls for 'red-flag' items.
In addition to the above, major areas of functionality were also completed:
* Automatic Posting of Trades to Third-Party Clearinghouse
* Scheduled process sends new trades every five minutes to third-party firm, wh
o manages trade clearing with the DTC (Depository Trust Company) and the GSCC (G
overnment Securities Clearing Corporation).
* The above ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process submits files over secured T
-1 connection via FTP. Implemented as DTS package.
* Users are now freed from the manual double-entry of all new trades, as previo
usly required, into the separate clearinghouse terminal.
* Automated Trades Reconciliation
* Reconciliation engine compares published clearinghouse trade records with web
trade records.
* Nightly process first downloads close-of-business trade activity file from cl
earinghouse. Parser utility loads all relevant data into web database.
* Reconciliation engine then applies a series of business rules to find 'best-m
atches' for record pairs.
* Any discrepancies between records, are highlighted and clearly shown on web r
eports.
* Parallel Support for Legacy Application
* Current production usage is of both web and legacy systems, with the web fron
t-end used exclusively.
* Web SQL database updates all data in legacy SQL database, through real-time t
riggers - differences in table schemas fully supported.
* Legacy application currently used for reports.

* Upon status changes, real-time email notifications are sent to appropriate pa
rties
* Managers can easily review, approve or decline reports
