CONTRACT / FINANCE & REAL ESTATE

Halo Programs

Contract full-stack development for Halo Programs (Michigan), April–August 2024 — work on systems for 60+ industry partners. Built admin portals for bank and real estate data feed configuration, contributed across a large multi-repository estate, handled SSL certificates and AWS VPN endpoints, led a SharePoint-to-Dropbox migration, stood up a Confluence knowledge base powering four public help sites, and decompiled and rebuilt legacy software where documentation was thin.

THE PROBLEM

Financial and real estate data clients need dependable, secure configuration surfaces for feeds and integrations. The organization’s footprint spans dozens of repositories with mixed ownership; infrastructure (SSL, VPN) and content migrations cannot afford downtime or ambiguity. Legacy systems without clear specs still had to be understood, documented, and brought forward.

THE SOLUTION

Delivered admin portals using C#, .NET Core, SQL, and Razor Pages so internal teams could manage bank and real estate feed settings safely and consistently. Worked across 70+ repositories with 190+ commits — coordinating changes, reviews, and releases without losing thread on security-sensitive paths. Managed SSL certificate lifecycles and AWS VPN endpoints; executed SharePoint-to-Dropbox migration. Built a Confluence knowledge base that hosts four public-facing help sites. Where source or docs were missing, decompiled legacy software and rebuilt maintainable replacements.

THE OUTCOME

Operational tooling for feed configuration shipped on the .NET stack; high-velocity contribution across the repo estate; infra and migration work completed with clear handoff; public help consolidated on Confluence; legacy gaps closed via reverse engineering and rebuild rather than band-aids.
