Professional case study
ERP engineering at business scale.
A view of my engineering contributions, production support and the systems I worked with at MicroKosm.
01
Built around real financial workflows
Connected finance, procurement, inventory, CRM, HR and operational workflows in one platform.
02
Stabilised mature .NET
Production work included EF6 entity tracking, lazy loading, cross-context errors, memory pressure, DevExpress trees/grids and Outlook COM lifecycle issues.
03
Designed practical modernisation
The migration direction moves toward ASP.NET Core Web API, Angular, EF Core, JWT authentication, tenant-aware architecture and automated delivery while protecting operational continuity.
Business capabilities
One custom ERP across finance and operations.
Connected modules share company, department, user, permission and transaction context.
Bookkeeping and ledger
General ledger, chart of accounts, debit and credit postings, current accounts, VAT, trial balance, profit and loss.
Treasury and reconciliation
Account reconciliation, petty cash, multi-currency transactions, interbank and intercompany transfers.
Loans and financial control
Short-term, company and employee loans, advances, budgeting, cost accounting, cash flow and administrative expenses.
Procurement and assets
Procurement, contract workflows, vendor management, inventory, asset management and operational reporting.
People and relationships

Experience
Engineering and technical delivery.
I am most useful where software engineering meets messy operational reality: changing requirements, live users, legacy constraints and business-critical data.

How I work
“Understand the business flow first. Trace the data. Make the smallest safe change. Test the failure paths. Then watch what happens in real use.”
That approach has served me well in mature enterprise systems where reliability matters more than fashionable rewrites.
Let’s work together
