EXPERIENCE

Senior PowerBuilder Developer Consultant
Project: Enhancement work on a Powerbuilder 11.5 application going against a Sybase 15 database. This work required quite a bit of stored procedure work. I also assisted in a Sybase 15 to Oracle 11g conversion project. I also integrated the Systran translation package into a file import Powerbuilder application, which I created. The Systran package is used by the import application to translate files sent by clients throughout the world into English before the files are imported into our tables.

- Project: Maintenance work on a Powerbuilder 10.2 and 10.5 applications. Sybase SQL tuning work. Incorporated Janus gridex object into the Powerbuilder 10.5 application. I converted a Powerbuilder 10.5 application to an Asp.net C application. I also created a new WPF/C application using the Telerik WPF controls. The converted application used a third party control, which did not convert and that's why I created the WPF application.

Recently I've been working on coming up with a .net c solution for Powerbuilder encryption, which no longer works in the old Powerbuilder Windows application.
