Project Summary

Project: Finacle Core Banking

Period: May 2012 to Present

Involved in development of core banking (Loans module) for Finacle (ver 10.6.x). Finacle is
implemented as a layered Service Oriented Architecture. Business logic is implemented in the backend in C/C+
+ and Oracle Database, using stateless services. Frontend is implemented using Java/JSP and HTML. Project
involved Requirement Analysis, Design, Coding, Integrated Unit Testing as well as fixing the issues raised by
testing team.

Solution Environment: C, C++, Linux, Oracle DB, Java, JSP, javascript, HTML

Project: BSC Application Development

Customer: Nokia Siemens Networks
Period: August 2010 to May 2012

Base Station Controller (BSC) is usually configured by the operators via a graphical tool called NetAct.
File Based Plan Provisioning is a way of configuring the Base Station Controller such that all the settings are
transferred at a time from NetAct to the BSC in a file. After the BSC gets the configuration file, it can go
through the file, identify the objects, check if they are valid, and then reconfigure itself with the new settings.

Solution Environment: C, TNSDL, DX200 Platform

Responsibilities:
Part of technical solutions team involved in estimation, reviews and development of the team
Responsible for the successful delivery of all artefacts as per schedule to achieve customer milestones.
Feature implementation involving design, coding, documentation, module testing and functional testing
support.
Maintenance support for old programs for the live Base Station Controllers at customer sites.

Project: Bloomberg Software Development

Customer: Bloomberg
Period: Feb 2010 to July 2010

The Bloomberg service is a global 24-hour-a-day financial information network providing real-time
and historical pricing, indicative and fundamental data and analytics. The Bloomberg Decision Support (BDS)
reads positions from a database and reads displays various fields for each security. The interface called calcrt
fetches the set of fields for each security. The task is to compare the benchmark data stored in the acquisiton
database.

Solution Environment: C++, XML

Responsibilities:
Implemented the Bloomberg Decision Support (BDS) data analysis tool.
Implemented the tool in C++ which parse the XML and analyse the set of data and displays the output
in HTML format.

Project: Bloomberg Software Development

Customer: Bloomberg
Period: May 2009 to Feb 2010

The Bloomberg service is a global 24-hour-a-day financial information network providing real-time
and historical pricing, indicative and fundamental data and analytics. The data collected from the data providers
are send to the backend ticker plant after being processed by the parsers. The team is involved in the
development of library for enabling the custom view mode of CDAP parser in pktview, a tool used to view the
data packets and enhancing the search options in the pktview tool itself.

Solution Environment: C++, Python, Rational purify, Bloomberg unit testing framework, Solaris

Responsibilities:
Implemented the library in C++ for pktview, for the custom view of CDAP parser and modified the
pktview tool to support search options specifically for the CDAP parser custom view.
Implementation of cmprmq tool.
Writing unit test scripts for the tool
Unit testing of CDAP parser by writing test scripts using the in house Bloomberg unit testing
framework.

Project: Nokia Flexi Platform - FP5 CAT

Customer: Nokia Siemens Networks
Period: January 2008 to April 2009
 All-IP platform is a Linux-based clustered, highly available, IP network based platform that supports
deployment of highly available applications. It also had support for automated software commissioning and
controlled software upgrade procedures. The team is involved in the implementation of parts of the automated
commissioning, installation and upgrade procedures. The work involved Python and Bash scripting.
