About MyCart.net
Company overview

MyCart.net  is an E-commerce web application with over 400 active stores processing 300 to 500 orders a day. The software solution was geared for small to mid-size businesses, and served as a full featured CMS and eCommerce system. The solution was fully PCI-DSS Compliant that contained 30+ API’s integrated into it’s custom code base. (ASP.Net, SQL, Flash, Flex 3, XML, Javascript, ASP Classic, VB Executables, …)

MyCart.net was sold and shutdown in 2017.

Responsibilities

My position at SureMerchant LLC involves many responsibilities. I lead all software development, as well as serving as the Systems Administrator of all our production servers, specifically +7 IIS Web Servers, and +4 SQL Servers. I’m 100% responsible for the up time of this system, any time an outage occurs I’m the first level of response, and in this situation it is my duty to immediately address the issue to minimize any down time. For the majority of my employment at SureMerchant LLC I have been the only employee with any coding experience. When large projects need additional employees, I am responsible for interviewing, hiring, and managing these new team members.

SureMerchant LLC is a small business and during my time there we staffed a maximum of 6 people and at our fewest I was the only full time employee. I think this detail is important to understand both the breathe of my technical experience but also to understand my ability to work under a very high amount of pressure.
