I'm an experienced OSS/BSS .NET Continuous Integration Architect/Programmer and DBA at the Next Generation Network (NGN), Optical Fiber Network (OFN) National project in Kuwait.
Since 2006 I've been responsible for the setup and maintenance of OFN's Next Generation Network (NGN) system's OSS/BSS .NET integration. I've single-handedly designed and implemented front and backend server applications to smoothly integrate project parts and vendor systems (Oracle Billing DB, Alcatel-Lucent/Nokia IMS & AMS, ALU Call-Engine and MGC and Protocol domains, Huawei IMS OSS and U2020/NCE's XML North Bound Interface (NBI), Signaling Service Processing System (SPS), SoftX3000, ...etc.) using .NET and its Entity Framework for database access and maintenance (using LINQ). The system includes a data center (SQL Server), front and backend applications, Intranet and Internet staff pages, Azure cloud applications and others. The result is a fully automated subscriber service provisioning system, with advanced maintenance and troubleshooting interfaces.
I'm experienced in a wide range of tasks typically needed in the telecom industry's interoperability and integration needs. I can provide programming support to any part of the establishment in a skilled and professional manner. I can design and implement practical, highly functional systems that enable the collection, storage, processing, and transmission of information.

Sample working OSS Structure and application desktop
This is a sample of software applications that I have done with short descriptions:
UNIX Emulator and Interface Manager
Application users a manual-like interface with a UNIX environment that does not support OSS/BSS interfaces. The application will connect and update as if it was a real user. This application interfaces to Alcatel-Lucent's MGC Softswitch Logical-Circuit server.
(Technology: C#.NET, UNIX, Telnet, TCP/IP, SQL Server, NGOSS, WFA)
Mail Manager Application
This application uses mailbox accounts (e.g. gmail.com) as means of exchanging data when more intergrated means is not possible. The application will open the mailbox, analyze contents (email), arrange and sort items, and create and send emails with relevent content. The method id particularly usefull with legacy interfaces and volume data interaction with management, staff, suppliers, and contractors.
(Technology: C#.NET, Regular Expressions, XML, SQL Server, IMAP, NGOSS, WFA)
Exchange Subscriber Number Status Maintainer
Application holds the state of a subscriber number in database. It also sorts the numbers according to rank.
(Technology: C#.NET, XML, MS Access, NGOSS, WFA)
Optical Fiber Network Management Intranet Portal (OFN)
This is the intranet part of an advanced OSS/BSS .NET Continuous Integration application. The system includes front and back-end server applications to smoothly integrate project parts and vendor systems (Oracle Billing DB, Alcatel-Lucent/Nokia IMS & AMS, Huawei IMS and U2020/NCE's XML North Bound Interface (NBI), ...etc.), and legacy systems, like Ericsson AXE telnet interface and management, Siemens EWSD telnet interface (into NetManager), simulated GUI over Citrix) using .NET and its Entity Framework for database access and maintenance (using LINQ). The system includes a data center (SQL Server), front and back-end applications, Intranet and Internet staff pages, Azure cloud applications and others. The result is a fully automated subscriber migration and service provisioning system, with advanced maintenance and troubleshooting interfaces.
(Technology: C#.NET, SQL Server, MS Access database, TCP, API Services, Telnet, Intranet, XML, XSLT, NGOSS, WFA)
NGN Service Provisioning Manager Application
This is an advanced, mission critical server application that monitors and integrate with Huawei IMS and Nokia IMS to enable subscriber provisioning of a complete NGN (Next Generation Netwrok) with hundreds of thousands of subscribers. The application communicates with an array of servers and other applications using many different protocols to collect and maintain the state of the system. The application work in conjunction with an advanced Intranet site.
(Technology: C#.NET, SQL Server, MS Access database, TCP, API Services, Telnet, Intranet, XML, XSLT, NGOSS, WFA)
Traffic Analysis Software
Analyze and prepare reports from large traffic files. The application exports report and data in XML, Excel, and CSV formats. It also uses activation keys and a trial period.
(Technology: C#.NET, XML, XSLT, Regular Expressions, API Service, XML Data file, NGOSS, WFA)
Statistics and Data Collector (SDC) Northbound Interface
Read statistical data from NE nodes into database.
(Technology: C#.NET, XML, XSLT, Regular Expressions, API Service, NGOSS, WFA)
Router Monitor Software
Application that logs into specific list of routers and reads/analyzes specific router command outputs, the store a analysis in a database table for further manual analysis be the network manager.
(Technology: C#.NET, SQL Server, TCP, API Services, Telnet, NGOSS, WFA)
Customer Server Request Order's Manager Application
Integration with legacy customer services department database with over 800 thousand service orders. The application validates the service state and provides the balanced final state of a service request for the service provisioning applications over IMS and FTTH GPON.
(Technology: C#.NET, SQL Server, NGOSS, WFA)
Network Element and Subscriber Provisioning over Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei Switch
This is a time critical application that will create, read, update, and delete subscribers and network elements withing the Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei NGN network. The application interfaces using OSS/BSS and maps the subscriber service state from the accounting/billing department with switching network.
