Dear Sir / Madam
Thank you for the opportunity to submit my CV.
I started programming at the age of 14, and won a national award in the same year.
Today I am a senior ASP.Net and Java EE Developer and with strong experience in the Microsoft and Java technology
stacks.
I manage the full software development lifecycle (SDLC):
 Gathering business requirements
 Drawing up / grooming specification documents
 Sprint planning and review (Agile methodology)
 Implementation / Programming
 Automated builds, Unit testing and Integration testing
 Deployments to development, UAT and production environments
 Monitoring and bug reporting
For Microsoft based solutions, I follow best practice coding standards in the form of the .NET Framework Design
Guidelines as documented on MSDN. Any developer who is familiar with the .NET framework itself, will be
comfortable with the code conventions in the delivered codebase.
I focus on developing robust software by adhering to the SOLID principles:
 Single Responsibility Principle
 Open / Closed Principle
 Liskov Substitution Principle
 Interface Segregation Principle
 Dependency Inversion Principle
I use the most common Design Patterns to make code more readable and maintainable.
I use the best available refactoring and code quality tools, and have a professional and systematic approach to
everything I do.
I'm a freelance developer. Let's set up a meeting. I know I can help you.
Respectfully yours,
Morné Fourie

History
School
I became a programmer at the age of 14, when I won 3rd place at South Africa’s National Computer Olympiad. I
realised that I was a natural and continued exploring the world of programming by taking Computer Science as an
extra school subject.
Tertiary Qualification
In 2006 I received my National Certificate in Datametrics through Unisa. My studies centred around systems analysis
and various design methodologies. I use UML, Use Case, Flow Control, Timelines and other diagrams in my technical
documents.
Windows-based development
I started out my Windows development career designing and implementing a multi-user CRM in Delphi and Access.
Later I translated much of the Delphi code to C# (WinForms). Currently I am working on a multi-user middleware
application (Synergy) for a listed company to integrate between Pastel and their existing school admin systems. It
facilitates enrolments, invoicing and reporting over a multi-site architecture.
Web development
I have been doing web development since 1998, starting out with an open source CMS called Post-Nuke, where I
gained experience in the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP).
Shortly after I started focussing on the Microsoft technology stack, starting with Classic ASP, where I specialised in
customizing open source shopping carts and integrating them with various South African payment gateways.
Since 2005, I focussed exclusively on ASP.Net and SQL Server. Most of my code is in C#, but I am also well versed in
VB.Net. I follow best practice n-tier design in my architecture. I am also very proficient in T-SQL.
My exposure to financial systems started when I was asked to implement real-time integrations with Pastel Partner
and Sage Evolution. My billing engine generates more than 30000 accurate invoices per month. It also synchronises
customer and supplier data between systems. Then the GL is kept in sync with an in-house Budget Management
application, as well as a 3rd party Spend Management platform.
Graphic design and CSS skills are strong points in my front-end designs. I found that appearance makes all the
difference.
Later I adopted several Java EE frameworks, including Spring, Hibernate and Service Oriented Architecture. In a
strange way exposure to Java also improved my .NET skills. Today I am a true polyglot, having mastered many
programming languages.
Database development
From 2011-2015, I was responsible for the company-wide data distribution strategy and the implementation thereof.
We used SQL Server Merge Replication to maintain pairs of synchronised databases between 33 schools throughout
South Africa. The sites benefited from local data access speeds in spite of sometimes having only 3G connectivity to
Head Office.
