Responsibilities:

Self-initiated acts & achievements from it:
* Reduced the upkeep of the main HR application by approx. 80% – Created proposals to a set of necessary refactor steps to ensure, data integrity & code-quality and to speed up future enhancements and eventual debugging.

* Initiated and authored the creation of reusable packages (both for .NET and Angular), which resulted in developers creating more business value (features) instead of ballast-code.
* Introduced necessary technologies and tools for the .NET and Angular – which increased data-fetch speed and end-user-experience in our app-bundles

Reusables created:
* Extended toOdataString implementation (based on Kendo UI) to support extended OData operators
* Created data driven validation library with dynamic error display for angular
* Implemented in-app help (similar to spekit.co ) for the Angular app-bundle

Technologies used:
* .NET core, Dependency injection, SQL, ORM, Entity Framework, REST API, OData, SignalR
* Angular2, TypeScript, NativeScript, Bootstrap, Kendo UI, Syncfusion, Auth0
* JIRA, Git, Microsoft Azure DevOps & CI/CD, IIS 6.5/7
