The engagement between Sumeru and MDLive has moved from being a one-person engagement in 2011 to a team of 15 full-time members.

• Sumeru operates as a seamless extension of MDLive’s competent technical team.
• Today, we have a well-oiled offshore delivery model working in close collaboration with the onsite MDLive team.
• Code and architecture are periodically reviewed by MDLive’s technical team and consulting technical architects.
• QA is owned by MDLive and over time, I am delighted to get positive comments on the product quality that we ship.
• Most projects created using Ruby.
• We have migrated applications in other technologies (i.e. .NET) to Ruby on Rails. Existing Rails applications are also kept on the cutting edge of Rails development.

Project Requirements:

• Migrate from Scala to Ruby.
• Maintain Ygrene’s legacy app portal
• Contribute to the development of a new portal for contractors and home-owners using Angular.
• Perform onsite resource support.
• Integrate third-party services with the existing application.

Deliverables:

• Dashboard Integration: Developed a dashboard where Ygrene tracks all their compliance criteria before funding. The highly functional dashboard streamlines their entire process and reduces the error ratio providing operational efficiency.
• Improvements : Provided an application to record all the Ygrene approved Improvements. It will help Ygrene users to have access to the latest version of the Approved Eligible Improvement List. They can also add or edit one or more improvements.
• Partner Portal - A better user experience: With neat and clean AngularJS, we revamped the existing application to help the contractors get their jobs done without any hassle.
• ID Verification through DocuSign : Simplifying the process of ID verification and document signature using third party integration DocuSign. With this application, contractors are able to close any business deal faster than other traditional methods.
• Robust framework to manage bulk-data: Maintained their robust framework to manage bulk-data with the Ruby APIs.
• Revamping the app process: Revamped the app process in the modules of the Partner Portal and Internal systems, from Ruby to Angular front-end (Node Package Manager, NPM) for better performance.
• Mail Delivery System: Integrated with the third party applications to automate the mail-delivery system.

Feature Development: Here are some of the features I have developed and currently maintain for Ygrene portal.

• AutoUW: Auto Underwriting
• Sighten: Change to Sighten Integration for Solar Lease
• Property Owner Portal
• Contractor Portal
• DBO Reporting changes for California projects
• Phased Payments
• Legal Agreement Document: Generate various Legal and Finance Agreements, with ability to e-sign
• Docker + Kubernetes for deployment
• Various Legislative changes required by the respective State or County

Developing Micro services: Built several micro services to encapsulate business/domain logic in a single place which could be reused by other apps in Ygrene ecosystem.

Project Requirements:

• Maintain the contractor portal.
• Develop the contractor dashboard features.

Deliverables: The contractor portal is an integral part of Acorn Finance software, helping the contractors to connect with the users who are looking for home improvement solutions. Tracking contractor activities is equivalent to deals bought.

• Number of offers lenders provided
• Which offer customer selected
• How much of the loan is funded
• Dealer dashboard
• Company dashboard
• Admin dashboard

Third Party Integration:

• Mandril

Technology Used

• Ruby on Rails
• Vue.js
• MySQL
• AWS Elastic Block Store
• Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3)
• Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS)

Key Achievement:

• When I started working for Acorn Finance, the core software was already developed. They were looking for strong tech support to maintain their contractor portal and I was able to successfully deliver the technology equal to the growth ambition of Acorn Finance.

• The integrated template editor is a milestone achievement on this project. There is a level of customization and interactivity that this editor permits which is not found in any off-the-shelf editor available in the Rails community.
• The application is built to scale significantly, and has strong built-in security features.

The Robly platform, in its current avatar provides its users with the following features:

• Tailor made templates for the novice user.
• Ability to design eye catching templates through an integrated editor for the advanced user.
• Create custom lists for campaigns (and use existing lists for swift functioning).
• Flexibility to send out campaigns to HTML aware, and HTML unaware email clients.
• Several notifications and alert mechanisms.
• Email statistics.
• Incorporation of videos and graphics into campaigns.
• Links to social network (Facebook, LinkedIn, twitter, Pinterest, google plus).
• Links to Payment gateway (PayPal).

• http://www.outfarm.com.
• Product offers features such as: Requirements Management, RFP and Proposal Management, Collaboration, Contract Management, Agile Project Management, and Portfolio Management.
• In order to meet the philosophy of the owner, the software had to be intuitive, improve collaboration and unlock developer potential. I used advanced UI controls, coded for complex bidding processes, built social networking into project management, and many more technical features that were in early stage when they were developed. The project in its finished form does what it was intended to, in a robust and predictable manner.
