Work experience

Senior Software Engineer at LogMeIn, Budapest (2014–)

Brief description: I am involved in software design utilizing cross-platform back-end and front-end technologies aimed at developing a first-class multi-platform conference and collaboration tool.

System Architect at Ericsson Research and Development Hungary, Budapest (2011–2014)

Lead designer for an extensible high-performance load generation framework.

Brief description: Consolidating a heterogeneous product portfolio that had proliferated over time, I led a tool convergence project to unite test specification and execution tools as a common load testing framework. The solution comprises of a graphical user interface implemented as a thin client that manipulates a model which captures domain-specific knowledge, a high-performance execution engine that simulates thousands of users and network nodes, and a cross-compiler that translates the domain-specific model to executable binaries, which are deployed to host machines. The development involved approximately 20 software developers with an impact over an approximate 4000 in-house users at various locations over the world.

Special attention was paid to the underlying execution engine. Having acquired an existing tool intended to generate load to test system performance under stress, previously developed by an Ericsson business partner, I played a major part in both the transition process and laying the foundations for a framework with significantly higher performance, improved exten­sibility and ease-of-use. The transition process involved a one-month period spent in Sweden, with active participation in design and coding. Once in Budapest, leading the software development process for a small team, I took a major role in drafting a new architecture for the product, creating a prototype implementation, and supervising the migration of existing communication protocol and media format implementations to the new framework. The team achieved outstanding speed, with agility to react to trouble reports and customer requests.

Technologies involved: C++03, C++11, Boost, Java, ANTLR, TTCN-3, GWT, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Linux
