I was responsible for providing the necessary hibernate mappings and Spring configuration for a new
interface to an insurance back end implemented by SAGA, the new owners of TheAA. I was involved in a
web site redesign. The new design used a custom API approach to web pages that allows the designers to
make many changes without requiring a Java release. The technology used for this was Java (1.6 using
annotations), Spring 3.0, JAXB(2), google APIs for generating client side objects via JSON.
