3 PROJECTS PRODUCT OWNER & ANGULAR / C# LEAD DEVELOPER ZUERICH, CH / FEBRUARY 2015 JUNE 2016 I successfully formed and led a team of developers, DevOps and requirements engineers in Zürich (Switzerland) and Pune (India) to implement a web based testing platform to test the n- to- n workflow of the trading systems. To deliver the most needed functionality in high quality I had to understand the needs of the testers and other stakeholders through communication and hands- on. Through demos in each sprint I gathered information to adapt the priorities and create or remove functionality from the scope. Through my expertise and experience in the technologies used I led the development team as their technical leader in Angular and C# WebAPI development. I helped them to improve their skills to deliver qualitative functionality and thus, getting a higher satisfaction of the users and management.

Together with the higher management, we are defining in intensive discussion where Credit Suisse should go to achieve the quality and the throughput the clients expect and how all together can achieve that target. We are interviewing various people in various projects to get a deeper understanding and to identify points of struggling. With that knowledge, we create a roadmap of achieving it and adapting where needed. We support the projects with trainings and coaching in agile practices such as problem solving, retrospective, grooming s, test driven development and continuous delivery. With that work, the projects are delivering faster in higher quality and thus, reducing the costs of the projects.

With the overall technical leadership of the architecture and the development team in Pune (India) I decided with the Credit Suisse Application development Team and the project leader to use newer technologies such as Angular and Web API, because these technologies are getting more strategic weights for Web applications in Credit Suisse. Together with the team in Pune I designed and implemented the functions regarding the specifications, which were given by the law and the requirements engineers to keep Credit Suisse compliant against the law. After a few months the decision was made to merge the functionality with existing systems, which already handled similar functionality for US and EU regulations.

4 SIEMENS SCHWEIZ AG LEAD SOFTWARE ENGINEER C# ZUG, CH / NOVEMBER JUNE 2014 The development of the new building automation system in Siemens called System One brought some challenges with the data migrations. There were many versions and formats of similar data, which differed from countries and systems. As the lead software engineer for the data migration I had to find out how many different versions and formats where there to be migrated and how the user would migrate these data to the new format of System One. To give the user the most flexibility and security of migrating his data I build a standalone WPF application. The functionality also got integrated as a module into the new System One. Thus, the customers all over the world could migrate the old data either via a standalone tool and import it into the System One or during the system update automatically. This gave the customers a huge benefit such as maximized flexibility and a much easier way to use the newest system from Siemens.

From sprint to sprint we improved the daily work in the team. The quality of the product increased through more pair programming, test- driven development, code reviews, a bug tracking board, continuous integration and better communication. With coding dojos we build a common technical knowledge so that everybody had the same understanding of developing software together. To get a better understanding what and why we had to build something I introduced user story writing instead of just writing the needed functions. This template gave better understanding of who will use it, what is expected and why. Through such and more agile practices I increased the productivity of the teams by more than 30%. Furthermore the teams and the Product Owner became more motivated to achieve more in higher quality. Tags: Scrum & Agile Methods, Clean Code, TDD, BDD, Coding Dojo, Retrospectives ROCHE DIAGNOSTICS INTERNATIONAL AG SOFTWARE ENGINEER C# ROTKREUZ, CH / OCTOBER SEPTEMBER 2013 At Roche I was building a large blood analysis device, which uses modern molecular biology techniques to detect diseases. In that time I was involved in the workflow and scheduling part of the device where I had to implement the correct behaviour in the right time. I worked mainly as a Software Engineer but was also involved in Requirements, Architecture & Design and Testing.

5 PERSONAL PROJECTS ANGULAR / METEOR DEVELOPER ZUERICH, CH / SEPTEMBER 2015 OCTOBER 2015 With the first generator I created, I focused on the front- end development. But for larger applications you will always need a backend, which is connected to a database. There are many frameworks out there, which can be used. I have chosen Meteor. Meteor gives you the possibility to easily create real time full stack JavaScript applications. I bundled Meteor, Angular, Angular- Material and Bootstrap, user handling and frameworks for unit-, integration-, and acceptance testing together to start effortless new applications. Tags: Angular, JavaScript, Meteor, Angular- Material, Bootstrap, Jasmine, ANGULAR DEVELOPER ZUERICH, CH / FEBRUARY 2015 APRIL 2015 With the motivation to solve the problem of repeating the same tasks over and over I created an Angular project generator. I defined and designed a target state to solve my needs. To enhance the usability of the generator I gathered feedback from colleagues, friends and the community. I structured the project generator in independent modules and used Gulp as the build system, Browserify for the dependencies, NodeJS for the node packages, Angular- UI for routing, Angular- Translate for internationalization support, Bootstrap and Angular Material for faster UI development, Karma + Jasmine for the unit tests and ftp deployment. I added proper documentation of the usage so that this generator is fully featured, clear and easy to use. Tags: Angular, JavaScript, Angular- Material, Bootstrap, Karma, Jasmine, 5 5
