Organizations continually strive to reduce their operating costs. Thus, organizations appreciate people like me because I can help them reduce those operating costs.The keystone of my 20-year career as a software engineer has involved the continuous process of driving cost-savings initiatives through the development of repeatable software-upgrade processes.Instead of technicians manually upgrading systems at each workstation, the process is administered from a central point using application scripts.►This reduces expenses through lower billable-hour amounts and fewer coding mistakes. Companies can now direct more resources toward attainment of their long-term business goals.I manage the entire lifecycle of application-development projects for a diverse range of commercial and government users, setting vision and direction for my development team while directly providing hands-on coding contributions.I use a flexible change-management approach in administering new installation and upgrade appeals often delivered on short notice through informal channels. The use of Agile methodologies are very helpful in 1st selecting projects with the greatest company impact.Often I am called upon to provide a “big picture” perspective that demonstrates the integral contributions that all team members make in conjunction with one another.During the morning commute, I’m excited by the challenges that lay ahead—because no 2 days are alike—and the opportunity to document solutions that will be leveraged in future problem-solving endeavors.►I’m on LinkedIn to build my network of professional connections and will gladly consider your connection request.
