Werdegang
Berufserfahrung von Lawrence Wamala
- Design and develop the remaining work packages while skimming through existing code for possible bugs. - Development, Testing, Continuous Integration and mentoring
As a lead Java backend developer i was here to overhaul and completely re-architect the main backend service; together with the team we intend to make it more performant, robust, maintainable and easy to integrate with third-party systems.
Lead Java Backend Developer: conceptualisation, design, development and overall implementation of a robust Rest API (https://readdy.io) for mobile and web client. Developed different components – persistence, rules orchestrations, authentication and authorisation, Apache Camel business process routes, Rest Endpoints, integration with OCR, unit and integration tests, documentation and development of a reporting dashboard. Also, developed a micro-service to validate unstructured address data from the OCR.
Developed a messaging system, filtering component and re-configured the live legacy server to run locally so that developers are then able to debug and troubleshoot with ease from a localised version of the live production deployment environment. Contributed to the development of a security component to secure all Rest Endpoints. Researched and contributed to important technical discussions on the famous 'Improvement Fridays'; these discussions constantly shaped the technological future of the company.
