Development Engineering Manager - a department created for me managed by me for Commonwealth Commnications, (CC - which was the engineering arm of Commonwealth Telephone Co). Position was to evaluate emerging technologies, and examine which ones would be profit makers for the company. Evaluated products involving VoIP, IP-PBX systems, Point to Point VPN solutions, wireless cable TV internet service providing, etc. In this position I reported directly to the Vice President and General Manager of CC, and was given no budget constraints. We rolled out several new products, and started to build an entire IT/Voice department “dream team.” During this time I earned my Microsoft MCSE. I also saved the company over 100k dollars on an IKON office solutions systems roll out for a local bank project. The development team was given special consideration with abilities to pick and choose members from any discipline to help roll-out projects, from Large PBX installations, to small network designs (Libraries). We even did a multi-campus network implementation for a bank, including upgraded email, web, and domain controllers.
