PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Responsibilities:

  • I was hired to build a piece of software that would run on a smartphone, and display in an easy to understand way, whether the price of certain commodities like gold and silver were going to go up or down in the near future.
  • I utilized a SCRUM environment to design both the Android, and iOS versions, and the software that ran on their servers to populate and analyze the RSS feeds coming in from the Securities and Exchange Commission.
  • An agile environment, in my opinion is the only way to do a project like this. It allows for freedom of communication up and down the ranks so everyone feels that their opinions are heard.
  • This gives everyone involved in the project a feeling of inclusion, and value in the project which is imperative when human creativity is called upon in a production environment.
  • This cloud service then populated the app with the information needed to tell investors to buy calls or puts if they were buying options, or to buy or sell futures on the metals, and energy markets. It is correct 86% of the time. I personally have turned $150,000 into over $680,000 in four months with this software. It's bulletproof, and it's incredible

Field Engineer/Scrum Master

Responsibilities:

  • I deployed a range of IT equipment including PC and MAC workstations, server migrations, and installation, at Kennedy Space center, Dryden Flight Research Center, and Dryden Air Operations Facility for HP, EDS, and ACES.
  • I was a "sweeper" of sorts solving problems on the fly to assure 100% end user satisfaction across a vast array of different hardware styles, OS's, and devices (PC, MAC, Smart Phones, Tablets, and any kind of server you can think of). I have experience with management and deployment of Cisco enterprise level switches and routers, and I have experience troubleshooting over 150 different software packages. I can do hardware level repairs of a level 3 nature and I'm not afraid of a soldering gun, I would request a verbal test over the phone with a current sys admin to verify my abilities. I was told by my supervisor Joey Morgan that I was the best Field Engineer NASA had.
  • I was responsible for QA on every mobile device at Kennedy Space Center, Dryden Flight Research Center, and Dryden Air Operations Facility. My skill with the android operating system and environment is based on over 10 years' experience with Linux. I am a master of the Linux Environment (Red Hat, Ubuntu, and Fedora). I am also very good at tying in a remote database with a mobile app to allow for cloud storage, and sourcing.
  • We would utilize a Scrum team for one week sprints to develop small applications; I served as Scrum Master on 19 sprints totaling 36 weeks. I have become very good at keeping a development team focused and on track of the customer's needs, as they change, and working with the Product Owner to relay, and explain feasibility statements in an android application development environment.

Owner/Operator/Engineer

Responsibilities:

  • I ran the company and sold & produced most of the jobs. We mainly did home PC repair/upgrades, set up wired and wireless home, and some small business networks (Windows server 2003 and XP or Vista workstations SMTP pop3 e - mail server, and apache web server).
  • Some systems integration work performed with local business owners (CNC millers, lasers, and cutters and ASCOM telescope base and software sys. Int.). We also specialized in remote management of mid-size corporate networks (Winn Dixie Supermarket 2005­2008) our largest account. We designed and build a relational database for asset tracking. We utilized Siemens OTS hardware and software on the data acquisition side, and Linux database servers running Red Hat Enterprise, linked to windows server 2002 back office systems.
  • We linked these to NT workstations for database access. We managed the entire system for them until 2008. Winn Dixie outsourced the operation, due to its size. Ask me about this, too much experience to list here, I literally saw something new two or three times a week for eight years, chances are I have experience with your issue.
  • We also did a lot of contract work for a small startup app development company Silver Meat Studios  they were one of our biggest clients. They mainly designed games for the android platform and we developed, debugged, and tested over two dozen different game platforms. These were developed and tested using Google's SDK for Android 1.5 "cupcake" to 5.1.1 "lollipop". Silver Meat would design all of the visuals, rules, and basic feel of the game they were trying to release. I would get a zip file full of drawings, and text with information on what the final product should be. From this I would design a GUI first with support from a graphic design team at Silver Meat, and determine the hardware requirements of the game (accelerometers, and hard buttons.
  • This would give the game its "face" and that was how I started each one after that debugging and certification was all just a matter of refinement. Running the software on as many different Android devices as possible (virtualization is only so good) is one of the key's (at least in my experience) to releasing a bullet proof app. I also found that backward compatibility in Android leaves something to be desired, so you have to test your app for every version of android you need your software to run on, and then make an app for each version of Android. I believe the key to testing is repetition, try to break it before the customer does. This means walking a mile in your customer's shoes, trying to test a piece of software in an environment that will most resemble your customer's environment.
  • I did contract work for CACI International, and the Wexford Group during this time as well. These projects were sourced through these corporations, but were contracted to support The Department of Defense, and other government organizations. The details of this work require a clearance to discuss, and written permission from the appropriate agency, or organizations.

We'd love your feedback!
