Supervisor: Ben Dobyns, President/CEO.
Beginning with scoping in November, and then R&D in December through February. Working with CEO, using entirely open source and contracted custom-code, implemented enterprise-class platform, complex applications servers, combined together to build a robust and feature rich community interactive multimedia platform supporting many movie and video series partners, and their fan base. Primary focus was providing rich community infrastructure for on-demand streaming video services with hierarchical access control to content and services based on Patreon payment levels.
Platform went live June 6th, 2017. As of September 3rd, 2017, still ZERO bugs!
Note, worked mostly part time. As architect, systems administrator, and technology consultant, most of the custom coding was handled as needed through a number of task-specific coding contracts. In consulting with business staff, created scope documents, R&D with various technologies, until found the ideal match to the business needs. Company was going to spend over $250,000 trying to custom build platform, but using an array of open source existing technologies, was able to implement for less than $10,000. Nearest market competitor had already spent 2 years and over 9 Million USD, and was going for as second round of 20 Million, and stated they were only half-way to launch.
