Some of the companies I have worked for are IBM, Symantec, Tektronix, and Sequent Computer Systems.My experience includes testing computer systems as a software test developer and writing operating and service manuals for test instrumentation.I am looking for a position to produce high-quality customer software or technical documentation in a timely and efficient manner.BACKGROUND EXPERIENCE :My experience includes testing computer systems as a software test engineer and producing customer documentation. As a technical project leader I was responsible for the development of test plans, test case definitions, and the tracking of the execution results by a team under my direction.SUCCESSES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS:Throughout my career I have identified potential improvement items in the testing process and implemented software solutions to make testing both more efficient and timely:* As a technical project leader, I had to track project testing progress and communicate status to various company entities by an application I developed to create status web pages.* As a tester, I did configuration of large disk arrays on a regular basis for testing purposes (stress, performance, regression, etc).* As a software test engineer, I developed an object-oriented framework for testing filesystems. This framework and the automation of testing increased the testing efficiency and inclusiveness of project feature sets.* As a technical writer, I produced instructional and servicing documentation for high-tech testing equipment.EDUCATION:I have a Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering from Columbia University in New York City and a Master's Degree in Computer Science from Oregon Graduate Institute.
