But I don't look forward to working in a large, large company again. Other than word of mouth, where do I find job recs from small businesses? My word-of-mouth pitch is enclosed. :) --------------FE926003D4315E45446BCFC6 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii; name="resume.html" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="resume.html" Résumé for Alexander G.

Career Objective:

To work on fascinating projects with full autonomy. I would like to work either as an independant or as a consultant on a small, agile team, and to drive some neat projects to completion. Pure software projects or business solutions are currently my interests, however given the time and opportunity I am capable of handling any engineering project.

Education:

Work Experience:

1997-1999

Honeywell: Software Engineer. I maintained and tested code on real-time embedded systems for autopilot flight control systems for small business and commuter jets such as Lear, Embraer, and Gulfstream.

1992-1994

Mirage Resorts, Las Vegas, NV: Room reservations clerk for the Mirage Hotel.

Technical Skills:

Operating Systems and Hardware:

I acquired my BS degree programming in a UNIX environment very similar to the Athena Project. This lab included Sparc, DEC, Silicon Graphics machines including Indys, an ONYX, and a Cray Supercomputer. My real-time embedded systems experience at Honeywell exposed me to customized Intel and Z80 processors. I've also programmed in Apple ][+, pre-PowerPC era Macintosh, and x86 systems. I have briefly touched the Visual Studio environment here and there. My home system is a single 686 with a swappable hard drive, it tries to be a Win98 system half the time and a Debian/GNU Linux system the remainder of the time.

Languages:

I'm most competent in C and C++ plus scripting languages in a UNIX environment. I have worked with many languages including assembly in x86, 680xx, and VAX, Apple ][+ BASIC, FORTRAN, HTML, Java, Lex/Yacc, LISP, Maple, MATLAB, OpenGL, PASCAL, PERL, SQL.

Communication Skills:

I am quite effective at communication in general, both written and spoken. I am comfortable speaking in front of groups of people. My native language is English, I am familiar with and can hold conversation in Spanish and Polish.

Personal Interests:

Try not to get into conversations with me regarding societal policy, you may not be able to loose me for the rest of the day. Other interests outside of computers include: firearms, especially practical tactical shooting; and video games, especially development as a hobby (I have learned and have been keeping track of the video game industry business models and trends since 2001. I have not completed any video game projects yet, but look forward to doing so someday.)
