Etobicoke, Ontario
08.2020 - 08.2025
  • Designed and shipped a cloud print pipeline on Azure that ingests documents via RESTful/JSON APIs, stores payloads in Azure Blob Storage, triggers Azure Functions for pre-flight, and submits jobs to Microsoft Graph Universal Print; implemented mTLS where required for job status callbacks.
  • Implemented a C++ service that polls printers and print jobs via Graph (bearer auth), and translates to IPP requests downstream; hardened with retry and backoff, ETag caching, and end-to-end JSON logging.
  • Wrote an Objective-C/Swift SDK for iOS apps to enumerate cloud printers, upload documents, and receive job state via Firebase RTDB/FCM; packaged with CocoaPods and SPM.
  • On-prem (Windows, CUPS, IPP)
  • Developed a C++ Windows print connector that bridges on-prem IPP/RAW queues to cloud jobs, manages Windows Print Spooler ports, installs drivers, and handles SNMP status for device health.
  • Created a CUPS backend module (C/C++) on macOS/Linux to receive jobs from iOS clients and enforce page/accounting policies; integrated with MySQL for per-department quotas.
  • Delivered an InstallShield MSI that installs the connector as a Windows service, sets firewall rules, creates an IPP port, and registers mTLS certs; used C++ custom actions for privileged tasks.
  • Implemented remote debugging hooks and symbolized crash dumps for field diagnostics; added VS/Xcode test harnesses, and unit testing around IPP parsers.
