• My responsibility have ranged from redesigning GUIs to re-implementing servers with a significant amount of system administration tasks and some database schema adjustments.
• The whole project has been a major system integration of the the dissimilar software components to work together with the translations, government requirements differences (specially tax handling), data format and some very specific hardware components.

Confidential, Fort Wayne, IN

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• Visual Studio C++, Boost, STL, QT, Cygwin, Shell Scripting. Responsible for the implementation of the “Power Supply Management Interface GUI”, which allows operators to manage the Flight Simulator Vehicle (FVS) of the Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) satellite in a simulated outer space environment.

Confidential, Chattanooga TN

Senior Infrastructure Engineer

Responsibilities:

• C++, Boost, STL, AIX, Linux, zLinux, Shell Scripting.
• As part of the Infrastructure group, my primary responsibility was to maintain a complex distributed C++ application developed in house for the purpose of “Object management and Storage”.
• The system stores dozens of millions of files in several TB of storage.
• As part of the development team, my responsibility was to port the C++ AIX application to Linux, incorporating the Boost library and the C++11 standard in the transition.
• The final goal was to remove the client specific *NIX code from the client portion to enable the creation of a Windows DLL and consistently replace a sprawling and diverse ‘client code’ population.
• As Confidential has been mainly a M$ Windows shop, the development expertise in the *NIX environment was almost my exclusive domain.
• I was also heavily involved in installing, configuring and deploying several flavors of Linux (including RH zLinux) due to the management push for Linux on the Enterprise.

Confidential, Reading, PA

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• C++, MFC. One year contract to implement a full size 3D Combat Simulator.
• My involvement ranged from analysis of requirements to software design.
• As the one of few Linux savvy members of the team, and due to my previous Confidential experience (part of the project used Confidential 's software)
• I was also involved in the configuration of the Linux boxes of the project, which went from simple install to custom network configuration.
• Most of the development was done using managed MS C++ on Visual Studio.

Confidential, Orlando FL

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• C++, QT, Boost, UML. Six months contract to finish the implementation and integration new simulated radar types to the Confidential .
• I participated on the design, development and testing phases. Design was accomplished by means of UML tools.
• The application is a mixture of C and C++, but most development is done in OO C++ using Qt and Boost libraries.
• My primary task was to implement missing design features and to debug and correct problems.
• I also designed and deployed parallel networks to run test systems separated from the company's network, but still keeping them accessible to developer's workstations.

Confidential, Marietta, Georgia

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• Solaris, Windows, C++, CORBA, Axis2/C, Apache.
• In charge of converting the current server side CORBA application to Axis2/C Web services. Because the CORBA application was a C++ source, and the Axis2c framework is written in C
• I wrote a parser and a code generator to wrap the Axis2c functionality around the C++ exception handling mechanism.
• I also implemented the server-to-server, SOAP based, communication component.
• I worked together with the GUI developers to integrate the freshly redeveloped .NET application with the converted server component.

Confidential, Redmond, WA

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• C++, Visual Studio.
• Member of the QA team. In charge of writing multi threaded test programs and unit testing for the “Optima API”. Optima is a C++ mathematical runtime to solve constrain problems.

• I also participated in the design of the tests programs and its integration with the existing test framework.

Confidential, Chattanooga, TN

Contract Software Developer

Responsibilities:

• Linux, OO C++, PostgreSQL, XML, XHTML, CSS. In charge of developing an OO C++ framework to be used to replace the current JSP application.
• Design Patterns were extensively used.
• Polymorphism and abstractions allow for middleware and databases to be independent from the “host” application.
• Inheritance and aggregation has been used extensively to re-use code among client and server components.
• Fundamentally the application is built on top of a CGI interface that sends/receives XML messages to/from the server(s) and displays the result via dynamically XHTML/CSS

• In the process, I had to set up the Linux servers, code tracking systems and project management tools.
• The system was to be written in PHP to be run under an Apache environment, but after the research was done and the coding started, it was found that the IT department already had tools available.
• From there, the project turned into evaluating the feasibility of “Business Intelligence” as a tool, implementing the underline database and training end users.
