Skills:

I am listing only recent software packages, tools, modules, etc., so my resume is not too long. I worked with hundreds of them. Likewise, I skip my computational research and publishing history BTW, quite successful, since I am done with Academia and I now work full time as a software developer. If my academic activities and papers are of interest, you can search Google or Google Scholar by my name.

• Programming/Scripting: perl/ActivePerl, Java, PL/ SQL, PHP, C/C, OO JavaScript/Ajax/JSON/YAML, jquery, bash / ksh / sh / csh, Windows .bat, Pascal, Fortran 66/77/90, i86 Assembler, HTML/DHTML, CSS, XML, XSL, DTD, XML Schema, RelaxNG, Schematron, XSLT, XPath, XQuery, TeX/LaTex, PostScript and PDF processing. Used ClearCase, SVN, Git and Harvest for version control/software management and both Agile and RUP for SDLC.
• Operating Environments: Many Unix flavors Linux, Solaris, AIX, Irix, UNICOS, MS Windows, Cygwin, VirtualBox/Vagrant.
• Protocols: HTTP, CGI, SSI, JEE, Web Services XML - RPC, SOAP/WSDL/UDDI, RESTful, DNS, SMTP, SSL/TSL, Kerberos, NFS/AFS, FTP/sFTP, TCP/IP and socket programming.
• Databases: MySQL, Oracle, SYBASE, MS-SQL and Postgress under Solaris, Linux and Windows. SQL and ORM approaches like JDBC and Hibernate in Java or DBI and DBIx in perl. DB support in PHP. Toad, SQL Developer and SQLyog as GUIs.
• SysAdmin: Unix/Linux on RHEL/Solaris DNS, Linux based bridges/firewalls, internet security, FTP, IMAP, POP, sendmail, spamassassin, X11, SSHD, user/group management YP/NIS, Kerberos/AFS, networking and security, SAN/NAS/RAID. Experience in user support and managing computer infrastructure, SMP and cluster parallel architectures, schedulers e.g., NQS, LoadLeveler, PBS, Grid Engine, Maestro, SVN/ClearCase/CVS/Harvest, ant/maven, Eclipse but I prefer emacs, Apache Web Server and modules, Tomcat Servlets, JSP, Struts-MVC, Weblogic JEE . PHP, mod perl2, Catalyst-MVC, TT, etc. MySQL installation and administration, Vagrant provisioning and installation.
• Foreign Languages: Polish native, Russian write/read/speak, German and French passive . Interests in foreign languages, transliteration and encoding, Unicode.

Software Development Consultant.

Maintenance and continuing development of perl and shell scripts that use a lot of SQL queries to Oracle and various RPC methods. Tivoli/Maestro schedules are used to automate financial operations, timing, and dependencies. Use of Harvest for software management, Quality Center for quality assurance, HP Service Center for documenting tasks, Toad and sqlplus for running Oracle PL/SQL interactively. Before this project, at another NWI location, I was porting a massive number of old perl4 scripts/modules from Solaris to perl5/ActivePerl on MS-Windows servers to run under IBM's Maestro. Scripts used calls to Unix shell utilities grep, mails, ftp, rsh, uuencode, ls, cp, mv, gzip, etc. and Cobol programs. Unix calls had to be converted to perl function calls, since Windows does not have many of these utilities and if so, they work differently. Created perl modules with a collection of Unix like functions and a perl preprocessor that did over 90 of required conversions automatically.

Software Development Consultant.

Confidential is a major publisher of scientific literature over 300 thousands pages of print each year and last 50 years of journals on line . I worked for the technical publishing group. My contributions include Java code to perform various XSLT transformations, retrieving and depositing XML manuscripts on Documentum Server using Weblogic JEE front-end for Web Services, validating documents and submitting them to ArborText Publishing Engine PE via Web Services to be converted to camera-ready PDF, evaluating the composition/rendering accuracy style rules, by analysing XML traceback from Arbortext PE, maintaining DTDs, XML Schemas and XML Catalogs for various document types, scripting shell, perl, bat to process submitions of individual manuscripts and complete issues for external printing and to be shown on the epublishing Web server. Used SVN, JUnit for unit testing and maven for deployment, Oracle for information retrieval, JIRA and QC with HP Quality Center for software management, SharePoint and HTML for technical documentation. All this done in a multisystem MS, Solaris, Linux, distributed Columbus, OH, Washington DC and secure VPN and HTTPS services environment. I was recently awarded a distinguished Catalyst Award by the ACS President for my contribution to the effort here. This award is rarely given to contractors.
