Hello and thanks for visiting my website!
My name is Safiur Rahman and I am a software developer, consultant, and internet marketer based in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. I am a Microsoft Certified Application Developer (MCAD) and Sun Certified Professional and possess over ten years of proven expertise in software development and consulting in verticals encompassing healthcare, customer relationship management (CRM), ERP, software change and configuration management, wireless communication, aviation, and transportation. I also have solid background in custom development for both commerical and governmental clients. In addition to my IT certifications, I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science (Cum Laude) from Texas A&M University.
While I've had the opportunity to work with many different technologies and architectures, my most recent experiences have been in Microsoft shops where I've worked extensively on desktop and web based applications utilizing the .NET Framework with an SQL Server backend. My experiences include WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) and Silverlight applications leveraging the MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) design pattern as well as classic WinForm and ASP .NET applications with C# being my primary programming language. Other technologies I've used include WCF (Windows Communication Foundation) RIA Services, LINQ, NHibernate, NUnit, Subversion, and Cruise Control in a continuous integration build environment. I am also knowledgeable in COM/COM+, XML Web services, .NET Remoting, Windows Services, HTML, JavaScript/AJAX, and custom report development using Crystal Reports. In terms of development methodologies, I am familiar with both waterfall and Agile (XP/Scrum) enivironments. I also have a solid background in J2EE applications with an ORACLE backend and some experience maintaining PHP/MySQL applications. Aside from my development experience, I am also a very capable technical writer, customer support technician, and QA engineer.
I am currently available for short-term or long-term contract or full-time/permanent work as a developer, writer, and/or professional services consultant. No matter what your needs, you will find that I am well versed in both the technical and business challenges in any project and am committed to delivering the best solution possible, on time and on budget. Thanks again for visiting my website and please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions or would like to discuss upcoming opportunities. I look forward to hearing from you!
