CISCO Systems
SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER
Architect of the Cisco Computer Telephony Integration Object Server (CTI
OS) technology since its inception. CTI OS is a reliable and high performance
platform that enables IP telephony integration from the network-to-desktop on
a Cisco IPCC Enterprise environment. As senior engineer in the CTI
engineering group provides guidance and direction on the design and
implementation of the application programming interfaces (CTI OS APIs) that
enable the integration of third party applications with Cisco's IPCC Enterprise.
- Designed the CTI OS
Client Interface object library using Design Patterns, UML and
distributed parallel algorithms. For the implementation used, C++, STL, and Sockets.
- Designed an
architecture to implement tagged messages for CTI OS that provides
flexible and scalable messaging model.
- Designed and
implemented a framework to support dynamic object properties creation
and implemented a mechanism based on object factories that allows third
party applications to do object sub classing when interfacing with CTI
OS.
- Implemented a CTI
Driver for Siebel.
- Designed an
implemented a high performance point-to-point Voice Over IP Silent
Monitor API that allows a superviosr station
on an IP Contact Cemnter to silently monitor a
phone call with out the supervisor bee part of the phone call
