Professional Experience

Full Stack Developer

2019-2026

OOMDO LLC in Albany, New York, USA

  • Mostly given storyboard or series of mock-up screens and business rules. I plan and design the Database structure, then codes all screens and APIs needed. I solely coded the HALO web app (https://www.halorangesolutions.com ), an admin website that provides the clients the ability to manage and control their front-end website, accessed by their customers (examples: American Firearms Training Academy and Live Free Armory ). For the front-end web site, starting from a static web template, I coded all API integration part that populates the store as well as enabling bookings and ordering transactions of their customers. HALO has user authorization, level of user permissions, scheduling of classes, instructors and facility (class-based front-ends) and has product inventory entry (for retail front-ends). It has also integration to other third-parties like Authorized.net and Shippo.
  • I also upgraded their existing CORE job ticketing system, customizing it based on their request and need as illustrated in the mock-ups. Core handles and shows progress of the job orders as they move around to each employees accomplishing the task assigned to them. It is complete with dependency setting, so an employee will not see their job task unless it is ready to work on.  Department heads can see the task list of all employees under them and can reassign or cancel job orders. Admin has reports showing how long it took everyone to finish their work, who has the most workload or what task causes the delay. They also manage their clients’ information and artworks. I adjusted the database to handle all new features. 
  • OOMDO is also managing client websites that uses content managing websites like DealerOn. They are asked to post ads and special promotions that depends on the search text a user entered.  I built a utility suite that generates JavaScript and html files, then we hot-link them in the OOMDO server. I also created an eblast email builder with html sections as widgets that they can add or skip.  If it has images, a user has an interface to upload and enter contents and post without the need for a developer. An account manager can create the eblast, just by clicking buttons.
