Co-founder, Architect, Developer @ Created the Aristobot Games service stack as a back-end system used for managing turn-based multiplayer games. Services were built using Java EE and hosted on a Glassfish server. The code includes third party libraries for utilizing RESTful APIs, MySQL database integration, and in-memory data caching. Multiple versions (for production and testing) of the service stack are currently hosted and maintained on my own Ubuntu cloud instance through Amazon EC2. Longer running processes (such as sending Apple and GCM push notifications) are stored in separate EJB modules, as to allow for quicker returns on service calls. Created the client mobile library using Actionscript 3 and Adobe Flex, which connects to the aforementioned RESTful API's through standard HTTP requests. Library also includes features common to most games (such as authentication screens, opponent tracking, and leaderboards). Developed Chess Chaps using the Flex 4.5 Mobile framework as the first game to implement Aristobot Games libraries and services. Used to play online Chess games on smart phones and tablets against real life opponents. Chess Chaps is currently available for most Android and IOS devices, and has sold over 300 units to date.

Built a set of CORS enabled RESTFul service endpoints using Node.js to allow client applications to easily query against the aforementioned MongoDB data set. Developed an extendable front end web application with RequireJS and Backbone, that allows users to view, clip and manage digital coupons from their desktop or mobile devices.

Helped guide the project from initial stages of development through full Beta release. Re-factored the company's in house javascript game framework by decoupling the DOM manipulation portions of the code into separate “Renderer and Model” objects; thus allowing the framework to operate closer to a standard MVC paradigm more suitable for standard web applications. Also coded corresponding RESTFul services and server-side scripts for the back-end PHP stack, which stored data to both a local MySQL database and remote third party APIs.
