  • Greentube Internet Entertainment

    As a generalist in the role of technical project manager, I was working with software projects from many perspectives – system integration, guiding the development, conceiving new solutions.

    Integrations of internal and external systems, scalability, system details knowledge, and having the big picture in mind all play a significant part in daily work.

  • Pole Energy

    The Pole Energy online shop project was truly interesting and creative, but on the other hand a big challenge as well.

    The goal was to create a secure, modern, multilingual online shopping application. It has taken about a year, from the initial idea until the full version, during 2009 and 2010, with the first release at the beginning of 2010.

    At the beginning of the project I have created the application architecture, entities, relations, and use cases. As we did agree to loosely follow Agile development process, the architecture was redesigned several times during the project.

    During the implementation, I have lead a crew of experienced developers in the effort to achieve high quality and performance.

    We have decided to go with the Microsoft stack, using ASP.NET MVC enhanced with jQuery to create the user interface, using Entity Framework, LINQ, and C# for the middle tier DAL (Data Access Layer), and Microsoft SQL Server as the back end.

    The project is successfully running on the cloud platform at www.poleenergy.ch

  • Matchpoint

    Matchpoint

    During 2007 and 2008 I worked on a document analysis tool called “Matchpoint”.

    The idea is to parse the document by identifying content blocks and then find certain keywords within the context. The document is tagged based on the found information.

    I did the software architecture first, creating the concepts, entities and relations,and identifying crucial parts of the system.

    The heart of the system is the parsing engine that identifies segments of document, for example education, experience, and so on. All the permutations of the segments are used, and the one that matches the most segments is selected for further analysis. Each of the recognized segments is then searched for the keywords. Each keyword has appropriate tags assigned, and this way the document is in the end tagged.

    Since the algorithm has to analyze documents in different languages, using semantic algorithms seemed a bit too complicated, so I went with regular expressions.

    The documents can be emailed or uploaded by FTP to the web server, where is a Windows service monitoring configured folder. A .NET console application is then run to convert document to plain text using IFilters, and then to run the analysis, and upload the data to the Microsoft SQL Server database in the end.

    Users can use a web application built on ASP.NET Web Forms to search and view indexed documents.

  • Car trading B2B

    Car trading B2B

    During 2oo8 I worked on the vehicle auctioning platform for a Swiss company.

    Frequent discussions with my close associate Saša Klačar, who did the requirements collection and communication with the client, resulted in well documented software architecture.

    After defining the system entities and relations, I managed a team of experienced developers went on to implement the system using ASP.NET Web Forms for the front-end, .NET, C# and SubSonic for the middle tier and Microsoft SQL Server as the back-end.

    I have also designed the database, scripted SubSonic, implemented a part of DAL, and created a Windows service for XML data imports from an external source.

    Following the loose Agile process, we have first released a user interface mock-up, which triggered several system redesigns and resulted in better specification in the following releases.

    The better part of the project was done, but it was at a point stopped by the client, even as they were very satisfied with our results, but it was caused by the company’s internal problems.
