At MediaWhiz I develop, maintain and refactor enterprise level software in the internet advertising industry. I lead a team of developers (local and remote) working on LeadROI, our core CRM product, to stabilize the product and increase code quality while adding new features requested by the growing client base. I have worked with third parties such as Lending Tree, Zillow and Google to create and refactor integrations including lead capture and real-time call dispatching/dispositioning.
I spear-headed several independent projects and cross-team integrations with the affiliate marketing and SEO/SEM teams. I contribute core APIs that are used throughout the organization and I introduce/mentor on the use of jQuery, ASP.NET MVC and S#arp Architecture including the implementation of nHibernate (ORM), Castle Windsor (IoC) and other technologies/design patterns. On most projects I coordinate with team leads, project managers, account executives and product owners to provide insight and documentation on the technical and business details crucial for decision making and overall direction of the product/team.
