3 IBM CORPORATION - New Jersey, USA DAVE VANDERWEKKE Page 3 (973) Dave@VanderWekke.com ASSIGNMENT HISTORY UNITED PARSEL SERVICES (UPS) Wayne, New Jersey, USA June 2009 October 2010 I performed as a technical lead, leading a team of US and Global staff for the technical aspects of a VB6 to VB.NET Windows Application Migration. I was responsible for consulting with the UPS architectural team in developing a new multi-tier framework and approach for migration of a VB6 application. A Phase development / release approach was requested by UPS. It was recommended that Microsoft's Interop Toolkit would be used to allow migrated.net components and forms to work seamlessly with the existing VB6 application. This allowed for a Phase migration and deployment approach. As the team technical lead I worked with the team of global developers giving Knowledge transfer session, creating white papers and documentation and giving technical guidance from QA sessions and code reviews. The global team would interface with me weekly to address any questions or technical struggles faced during migration. I also performed as a Senior.NET Developer. UPS had used many 3rd party form controls in the VB6 application and wanted to replace these functionalities with their own.net written custom controls. I was responsible for the design, coding, maintenance and documentation of these custom user controls which included custom data grids, print engine, custom panels, labels, buttons and filtered text boxes. I was also tasked with mapping out, documenting and prototyping an approach to replace the VB6 oracle database access of oracle objects (oo4o) with either ADO.NET or ODP.NET. I worked to create a welldocumented and easy approach to replace oo4o with ODP.NET for a later phase of the project. MAERSK LINE INC Morristown, New Jersey, USA December 2004 May 2009 I was responsible for leading a team of US and Global staff for the technical aspects of system support and custom development. Specific tasks included analysis, design, development, testing, and ongoing support for application systems. Built strong functional teams through knowledge transfer, diverse assignments and mentoring. Identified key resource conflicts and negotiated resolutions across projects. Ensured technical design of project and baseline work was in accordance with Architecture. I worked to enforce the use of accepted methodologies and tools in a disciplined manner. I was responsible for architecting, designing and developing new.net based software applications and support tools as well as specifying and identifying enhancements to current software application used by Maersk Line's customer resource centers. The applications I supported include web application, windows application, web services, windows services and telephony applications written in Microsoft.NET 2.0 and 3.5. I worked closely with IBM outsourced development teams to implement these projects. I was responsible for analyzing business requirements and providing the development team with software specifications. I developed a reusable web based software framework for use in building applications for Maersk. This application framework helped Maersk reduce costs by allowing them to perform certain maintenance function themselves. It also reduced costs by reducing development time allowing developers to reuse common components and easily implement security, performance tracking and audit tracking features into modular functions. I also developed and implemented some of the first web services used by Maersk Customer Resources Centers. These web services allow custom applications to easily integrate the ability to send s, faxes, retrieve data and log task data.

4 SELF EMPLOYED CONSULTANT - New Jersey, USA DAVE VANDERWEKKE Page 4 (973) Dave@VanderWekke.com VARIOUS CLIENTS Morristown, New Jersey, USA February 2002 June 2004 I was a self-employed consultant and promoted my business as strictly a.net development company. I worked the full life cycle of projects with my clients. I worked for many difference clients developing many different software packages for their needs. These include: 1) A Scouting Application used by a major league baseball team. The application functions as an Enterprise Information Portal where Pro Scouts, Amateur Scouts, Athletic Trainers and Team Physicians employed by the organization access various program modules pertaining to players (from amateur status to pro), physical injuries and treatments. Phase 1 is now complete, which consists of modules for Pro Scouting and Team Scouting reports with full motion video incorporated. This project is scheduled to consist of at least 5 phases, with each one adding further functionality and integration with Major League Baseball headquarters and their central data repository for player statistical data. 2) Developed a multi-lingual VB.NET / ASP.NET portal application with a SQL Server backend. This application functions as an Enterprise Information Portal where Athletic Trainers and Team Physicians employed by major sports teams and universities track their athletes physical injuries, treatments, progress, medications and view their digital x-rays online via the web and PDA mobile devices. The program was demonstrated to Major League Baseball teams at spring training of It was also presented at the NATA (National Athletic Trainers Association) show in June The product is currently up and running with approximately 50 sports teams and universities. 3) Development of a multi-tier ASP.Net portal application utilizing a SQL Server 2000 backend. The application functions as an intranet/extranet portal application that is used for web based maintenance and monitoring of commercial building security and access control systems. This application connected to various clients security systems via an RS232 to Ethernet adapter to allow security system monitoring and changes. 4) Developed a web based system for trouble ticket tracking for the small-to-medium sized enterprise. It can be used for customer support, bug tracking, trouble ticketing, or any other purpose for which a group of people need to keep track of a list of tasks. It features a number of technologies designed to make it easy to keep track of a large number of tasks, issues and projects. This was used to hook into many of my clients applications via web services to allow the applications to automatically report troubles and open trouble tickets. 5) Developed an inventory, shipping & receiving, warehousing application built on the asp.net platform. It allowed the client to track inventory currently in the warehouse, create pick slips, bills of lading and delivery invoices. It would automate monthly storage billing either s or faxes invoices. Reporting on inventory can be filtered by client, product, make, color, model and either printed or ed from the system. Later, a windows based version of this application was developed that could be run internally without external access but could also be used externally with an accessible SQL Database.
