Employed the best international standards for the DGGS solutions and oversaw the deployment of a cluster for the Canadian Government. Reduced the number of bugs on the solution, transformed the application from a WinForm desktop application to a scaleable SaaS platform using WebGL 3D graphics. The product was launched with 100+ users on the demo platform and 2 successful deployments to clients.
Converted the client's legacy engine into modern a modern solution with an innovative UX solution that allows users to sign 10+ forms and 80+ signatures quickly and easily.
