My primary function at Global Furniture Group has been developing an extension for Configura’s CET Designer, a software package that allows manufacturers to add intelligence to their products during the design process. This entails fully understanding how each product operates and interacts with others and programming the rules and interactions for their 3D representations to reflect their real-world uses.
As the Lead Developer, I gather project requirements, delegate tasks, organize bi-weekly sprint plans, and run daily Scrum meetings. With CET Designer running on a proprietary programming language (CM), I also train new developers on the language, platform, and our code base. As we complete our programming for product lines, I also organize postmortems to review the process so we are better equipped for the next phase of development.
On the user-facing side, I assist with training and monitor bug fixes, making sure issues are handled in a timely manner and our development stays true to our timeline.
