I have over twenty-five years of experience in the software development business with exposure to a wide variety of assignments: from microprocessor engineer to manager of large software projects.I am experienced as practitioner as well as manager and have been exposed to a multitude of environments: Assembly languages, C, C++, Java, several Unix flavors, VM, AS400 and Wintel architectures, to name a few.I coordinated the development of software projects that span multiple sites and continents and I closely supervised various activities such as planning, generation of specifications, code development, integration, test and product launch.I have analyzed and gathered market requirements, interfaced with technical and sales personnel, built several engineering teams and developed ideas that started as a sketch on a white board and materialized into full fledged marketed products.I am an established inventor with 17 issued patents, some being listed in the patent section of my profile.Specialties: Project Management, SDLC, CMMi, Agile, Xerox PDP, DO-178BRequirements Analysis and Specification,Design, Implementation, Integration and Test,Document Management Systems, Page Description Languages, Real Time Software, Imaging Devices
