EXPERIENCE

 


Wells Fargo Bank : San Francisco, CA

Capital Markets Group / Financial Derivatives Trading
01/2002 to Present

Web Developer (AVP)

 

Overview: I led a team that developed web-based intranet applications that effectively ran Wells Fargo’s financial derivatives trading floor. Complete front, middle, and back office work flow automation with over 250 users in multiple geographic locations. I was also the main creative force with duties including GUI layout and graphic design. I gained an intimate knowledge of industry specific XML favors like Financial Products Markup Language (FpML 3.0). I have extensive business knowledge of exotic financial derivative instruments including interest rate/commodity swaps & options. I am also responsible for web server security configuration.

 

Calypso Derivatives Trading System Implementation: Customized and extended a massive 3rd party Java API with over 2,800+ classes. I developed and integrated it with an XML-based bank-wide Federal Reserve wire payment system a bank-wide General Ledger (GL) accounting system. Custom Java/HTML template driven back-office document automation solution (payment advices, trade tickets, ISDA confirmations) allowed for a substantial increase in trading volume without increasing operations staff.

 

Java to .NET/COM Bridging: Using software tools from JNBridge and J-Integra, I controlled Java objects from a .NET environment as well as COM objects from a Java environment. This enabled true cross-platform development which saved real time and money by allowing us to leverage existing or legacy systems for tasks that we already had solutions for.

 

XML Database Persistence: Successfully implemented technology that dynamically stores and retrieves XML in a relational database. Using Microsoft SQLXML 3.0, I could create a virtual mapping of any XML in order to disassemble it into a relational model that could be reassembled and accessed via dynamically generated XPATH queries.

 

Fax & Email Server Integration: Biscom fax server COM API, Microsoft Word & Excel based document generation engine using COM Interop.
