Architecture and technical direction across the products:

• laid the foundation the team works on: the core .NET and Angular libraries and one application template, which every project since 2022 starts from and takes its look from
• built the metadata-driven framework on top of it, turning entity configuration into whole screens. A developer who needs something it does not cover escalates onto an API they already know instead of rewriting the screen
• designed the configuration-driven scheduling library, together with the verification that shows it reproduces the systems it replaces
• built the internal developer portal, the desktop agent that drives it, and the documentation service that private APIs are retrieved from
• led the analysis on a large manufacturing engagement. A knowledge base assembled from the raw material of the meetings, then used to produce what the project ran on: the interface agreements with the customer's other vendor, and the specification itself
• then the testing infrastructure across all of it, from unit tests through to end-to-end. This is where AI-assisted work first paid for itself, and it is what keeps ten years of accumulated code safe to change
• established how the team works with AI-assisted development: what may be generated, what must be verified, and how the verification is itself proven to work
• train and coach the development team on architecture and engineering practice

Delivery ownership on long-lived customer systems:

• principal author of a Kaizen management application and, from 2020, an integrated suggestion-management system for a major commercial-vehicle manufacturing group — both still running in several of its plants today
• owned the most demanding parts of customer applications end to end, from requirements through production support
• coordinated colleagues' work and led customer-facing technical discussions
• the repetition across those projects is what led to the shared libraries: the same problems were being solved from scratch each time

Full lifecycle delivery of manufacturing and line-of-business applications:

• followed applications from the first requirements meetings through to production release and ongoing support
• deepened .NET and SQL, with a strong focus on ORM work in NHibernate
• built the customer-facing skills the later analysis work rests on
