Large scale and sophisticated consumer information site.
One of the larger and most highly-trafficed Drupal sites, this was built by a team of six developers, working remotely, using online technologies for collaboration. Originally in Drupal 5, it was migrated to 6 and redesigned in 2010.
I learned many lessons about tuning performance, scalability, and content distribution while on this team. The site is served by clusters of web and database servers, mirrored at a second host farm, and deployed with a combintation of scripts and version control systems. All developers were familiar with maintaining different aspects of the site, and had specialties; mine was importating data from partner companies from XML feeds and other APIs and writing custom integration modules.
Redesign of informational site for a company offering high tech algorithms for traders and investors.
Working from a simplified user interface, I created front-end and back-end theming templates and functions to present information in a more intuitive manner. Views and node references are used to provide a simplified administrative interface to allow site maintainers without a technological background to create sophisticated displays.
