March 10 – September 13                                                                                        RBS, London
Freelance Developer
At RBS I have been working on setting up and designing a new Notes management, Pricing and monitoring system for the structured notes team.
As a senior developer, I’ve worked on the architecture and implementation of the application.
The system interacts with many other subsystems so this role has involved a lot of cross-team interactions. The end result makes use of many different technologies, including web services, multi-threaded server, and rich client applications.
The architecture is built around unit tests and takes advantages of inversion of control (Dependency injection) in order to minimize the coupling.

Freelance Developer
I have been working in the Quality of Service Team of the bank's Order Management System. The OMS is using C# Winforms and is used buy over 500 users worldwide. The business set us an objective to improve the throughput and capacity of the system by 10.

• Putting metrics in the code and setting up automated throughput measurement in order to monitor our progress on a daily basis
• Participating to the design and development of a server used to remove some load out of the OMS' GUI
• Development of a server monitoring tool in WPF in order to display the server inbound and outbound status as well as issuing simple commands via remoting
• Validating the server in order to ensure it was not corrupting the flow sent to the OMS
• Profiling the application using Jetbrains Resharper in order to spot and fix potential bottlenecks, as well reducing memory usage
• Production of performance improvement reports
• Handling of the Production rollout process, creation and implementation of the rollout plan

• Adapting the existing recovery to support APAMA targets
• Adapting the system for ASIA:
  • • • 6 weeks onsite in Tokyo
      • Adapted the Market Data Feeder component to get the market data feed for Osaka and Tokyo via TEK adaptors
      • Provided a mean of calculating missing market data (such as last traded volume)
      • Modified the FIX inbound and outbound to support custom tags
      • Ensured GMT compliancy
      • Modified the Market Simulator to support Tokyo and Osaka
      • Implemented the compliance rules (min/max order size, tick size)
      • Managed the development plan, deployment and testing

• • • Gamma Hedging Support
      • Made the full architecture and design to fit the functionality in the current system

• • • • Implementation of the Gamma Hedging support, server side. (Risk Data processing and publication, Gamma Hedging algorithm creation, multiple algorithms support, …)

• • • • Enhanced the GUI to support the Gamma Hedging functionality. (Client Message Handling, MVC design pattern, …)

Technology wise, I have greatly increased my skills in the following areas: Client-Server design and optimisation, real-time messaging handling and optimisation, memory management using .net profiler, market data handling and connectivity.
I have also developed my capability to work in a fast paced front office environment and to handle urgent situations in contact with the support team and the traders.

Case study and development of an application based on the new set of standards: ebXML (http://www.ebXML.org), for a European project. Technologies used: Java, JSP, Servlets, Tomcat, Soap, XML, UML, SQL.
I worked on the implementation of a system for electronic business and exhibit exchange between participating museums using ebXML (Electornic Business using eXtensible Markup Language) defined rules.  I was responsible for both the feasibility study, design using Rational Rose, and full implementation of the system from scratch using JSP and Java Servlets.  The system runs on two Tomcat servers and backs onto a mySQL database server and is integrated into the REGNET network.
