Tapstone's Server Change Center is an IT tool for managing enterprises

<li>Designed APIs, libraries, and protocols as lead engineer of the
architecture team during system design phases. Reviewed system-wide
design and implementation choices to support the goals of high
performance, fail-safe operation.
