Senior Software Engineer 4, CMMI Task Lead, and Remote Control Interface (RCI) Project Lead supporting NASA under the NENS contract. My duties include performing all activities associated with software design, development, implementation, maintenance, configuration management, IT Security, and quality control for scientific and engineering applications. During Space Shuttle missions I provide software support during the launch phase. The Constellation Program was added to my duties as a Software Systems Engineer for the Ground Tracking Software. In addition I’m the Site Software and Hardware Archeologist.
TOOLS USED: Wonderware InTouch 7.0

October 2006 – August 2008 L-3 Communications, Intelligence Solutions, Annapolis Junction, MD, Sr. Software Engineer
As the Senior Engineer on the FASTRAC/e-Campus project for the National Security Agency (NSA) it was my responsibility to implement the Blackboard Learning Management System (LMS) and make it available agency wide. I designed the operational hardware environments, DEV, TEST, and PROD. Then I installed the software, wrote the CONOPS and SOP manuals. After that I worked with Instructors, Course Managers, and the United States Naval Postgraduate School to produce courses. In the integration phase I worked with other projects so e-Campus could share courses and materials with them. This required creating JAVA Servlet Pages (JSP) to communicate with other systems through http ports. SQL Server Agent was used to transfer data directly into the PeopleSoft database.
TOOLS USED: Blackboard 7, Java 1.5, JSP, CSS, PERL, Windows 2003 Server, MS-SQL Server 2000, MS Internet Information Server 6 (IIS6).
December 2003 – August 2006 Northrop Grumman, Mission Systems, Columbia, MD, Software Engineer 5
September 2005 – August 2006 Contracted to work for the United States Department of Defense.

My job as a Systems Engineer requires me to produce UML documents, Use Case Diagrams, Class Diagrams and Sequence Diagrams in accordance with Northrop Grumman’s CMMi Level 5 process improvement program. Documents I authored covered System Integrity Test (SIT), using open source TripWire, Kerberos v5, SSH, and a trade study on Project Management Software for Macintosh OSX. During Peer Reviews I participated as a Facilitator, Reviewer, Author, Scribe, Stake Holder, and Editor. To help the project produce better papers I mentored colleagues in preparing documents.
February 2005 – September 2005. Senior Software Engineer on the GLOBALVISTA Integration Team.
At GLOBALVISTA my job was data migration from many different databases into one database schema running on an Oracle 10g server. The contributing databases ranged from small text files with tab separated records to huge Oracle or Sybase databases. There was no common schema among them. My solution was to produce an XML document model to capture, store transport and import the data. Contributors would export their data in XML, conforming to the document model, and submit it. Then I produced the System Engineering documents, Use Cases, Detailed Designs, etc., and implemented the XML engine. Soon more XML expertise was needed and a colleague was brought in to help out. Contributions were trickling into the database. The JAVA XML code was running fine. Consequently I had managed myself right out of a job. Then a Macintosh Developer’s position opened.
August 2004 – February 2005. Technical writer and editor for the TRAILBLAZER project, Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) Team. For the training team I assisted in installing and maintaining the Evolution e-learning web portal from OutStart for the Learning Management System (LMS)/Learning Content Management System (LCMS). Collaborated and communicated with technical staff, instructional designers, graphic artist, and system engineers.
December 2003 – August 2004. Technical writer and editor for the SHAREDVISION and SURVIVOR proposals.
TOOLS USED: C/C++, ClearCase 2003, ClearQuest 2003, Kerberos V5, Macintosh OSX 10.4, MS-Office 2003, MS-Project, MS-Visio 2002, Objective-C, OmniGraffle 4.1.1, Perl 5.8, Rational Rose 2003, Solaris 10, SSH 3.8.1, Xcode 2.2.
July 2000 – August 2003 Raytheon, Landover, MD, Senior Systems Engineer I
Responsible for IV&V on the Data Distribution, Science Data Server and Storage Management subsystems for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)’s Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) Core System (ECS). Participated in ISO 9000 audits in 2000, 2001 and 2002. Participated in Capability Maturity Model (CMM) audit in 2001. Implemented a mode control menu in Perl for ECS.
TOOLS USED: AMASS, C/C++, ClearCase, JAVA, LodeRunner under MS-Windows, PERL, Purify, Sun Solaris 2.5 and 2.8, Sybase 11, UNIX shell scripts.
March 1999 – July 2000 Fannie Mae, Herndon, VA, Programmer Analyst I
Responsibilities included Software Archaeologist for Fannie Mae’s Desktop Trader Program and MORNETPlus Network. For Fannie Mae’s Year 2000 Program I verified MORNETPlus, a CORBA based program, for compliance and updated Desktop Trader, a MS-Visual Basic 3.0 program, so it would pass compliance tests. The database was upgraded from Sybase 4 to Sybase 12 in one step, and I followed by updating the supporting SUN Solaris C programs, supporting Crontab scripts, and the Day Closing System.

December 1998 – February 1999 Intergraph, Federal Systems, Reston, VA, Programmer Analyst I
As a Programmer Analyst I worked on the SecureTrack and SecureView projects doing maintenance and feature additions. SecureTrack is an Embedded Real-Time system used to track fleet vehicles using GPS and SecureView displays the data on map. For the Year 2000 Project I performed compliance certification on both SecureTrack and SecureView in addition to many COTS packages. In addition I planned and executed the code migration for SecureTrack and SecureView from Visual Basic 5.0 to Visual C++ 7.0. SecureTrack used a MS-Access database for that captured GPS data in real-time but had a 15 minute limit. I redesigned it to record more data for up to two hours.
January 1996 – October 1998 Academic Computing Center, University of Maryland, College Park, MD, DP Programmer Analyst I
Worked on the FASWEB, FASMAIL, and ELF projects. These were migration projects to port various PERL, AWK and COBOL programs to a Web based intranet using C/C++ and JAVA JDBC programs and OOD/OOP methodology. The database was an Oracle 7 SQL RDBMS residing on SUN Solaris UNIX computers. This required translating business-level user requirements into functional specifications and detailed program specifications. The projec...
