Software Development Experience
Project in Human Computer Interaction & Evaluation – Web-based Exergame Tracker
Software Developer
Apr 2016 – Jun 2016
Description: A web-based administration system that would allow doctors and trainers to track the exercise data of their Leukemia patients.
Technologies: Spring, MongoDB, AngularJS, HTML, CSS
- Participated in architectural discussions that determined what technologies would be used for the backend and front-end
- Played an active role in backend development discussions and supported backend development efforts that were being spearheaded by another team member:
- Made the REST controllers make use of the service layer classes, which interacted with the MongoDB database
- Constructed the model classes and added missing operations to the service layer classes
- Provided direction for development efforts that led to the creation of a message queue based on the client’s requirements
- Developed a python script that was used to remotely update the Spring-based server on the client’s physical server, which I previously set up
- Wrote documentation that described our architecture and why specific technologies were chosen
Software Design II – Final Project
Software Developer
Feb 2016 – Mar 2016
Description: An extensible board game server.
Links: GitHub
Technologies: Java, JavaFX
- Collaborated with 6 students in order to design and build an extensible board game server, which included a networking component and the following built-in games: Chess, Checkers, Tic-Tac-Toe
- Actively participated in architectural discussions that led the game-related classes to ultimately use a Model-View-Controller architecture, in addition to participating in discussions related to how the networking component of the project would interface with the game architecture
- Proposed the creation of a standard way to construct grid-based game boards, which was implemented and used by each game
- Designed and implemented the custom game board implementation (BoardGameGridPane) and the base game gui class (GameGUI); Contributed to the development of the Chess game plugin
- Participated in five presentations over the course of the project that explained how we went about the project
- Wrote documentation for the custom game board implementation and the base Model/View/Controller classes
