Lead Software Engineer

I am part of the MOM project team, which supports the manufacturing process worldwide in the ThyssenKrupp Presta plants.

As a Lead Software Engineer first I cleaned up and documented the Onboarding process, which includes the full stack Development Environment setup (Backend - Java and Frontend - Javascript). Now my job is new application feature development and bug fixing. Mostly I was involved in material consumption correction and sampling implementation processes. As part of the job I documented technical and business processes and mentored junior team members.

I was part of a team, which had to reverse engineer, document and migrate Apache Oozie based Java workflows out of Cloudera clusters into AWS EMR.
As a Developer I investigated and migrated about 20 custom built ETL pipelines. I modified the pipeline Maven builds and the Apache Oozie workflows as necessary. I deployed the migrated pipelines onto AWS EMR. Solved the emerging issues and documented the whole process on Confluence.

2015 July - 2016 July (1 year)


Solution Architect

The project was about to migrate the former MoneySavingsExpert Cheap Energy Club blog infrastructure to the new MoneySuperMarket.com Fusion platform.

This migration was a complete rewrite in all layers: frontend, backend microservices and MongoDB based database.

As an architect at first I designed the MongoDB database structure and the microservices RESTful APIs. Once the backend became stable, I designed and implemented the production database migration. It was done in the following steps:

  1. Input schema definition as a set of CSV files
  2. Data extraction from the legacy production database according to the pre-defined CSV files based schema.
  3. Data validation in the target AWS S3 bucket
  4. ETL job creation in Java, which transformed the data in an in-memory database
  5. Clean up the transformed data based on a set of predefined business rules
  6. Persist the result with RESTful API calls

The ETL job ran on several AWS EC2 memory optimized instances.

Of course test dataset was generated, monitoring and runtime statistics were gathered. Several dry runs preceeded the production execution. The final run was fast and flawless.
