CLI Development Resume
Updated
Summary:
If you are building a device that needs a command-line interface (CLI), I am the ideal candidate to design and implement it. In addition to my direct experience implementing CLIs and interpreters in general, I offer a tool called CLI Power Tools, which can cut 3 to 6 months off the development time of a high-quality CLI.
I will take your project through all or any part of the software-development life-cycle, working either as a team leader or as an individual contributor. I ensure that the project's needs are considered at every level of detail. When programming, I avoid quick-and-dirty solutions in favor of maintainable, extensible and efficient implementations. I also document my work with clearly written specifications, design documents, and/or test plans. I am expert in a number of programming and scripting languages and am quick to pick up new languages or third party tools as needed for a particular task.
Skills:
General: Object-oriented analysis and design (using UML), strong verbal and written communications skills, Linux device drivers, embedded systems, team leadership, software tools, graphical user interfaces.
Languages: C++ (since 1989), C (since 1982), Perl, Pascal, Visual Basic, HTML, Unix Shells (Bourne, Bash, Korn, C-shell), 680x0 and 80x86 Assembly languages. Learning C#, JavaScript.
Operating Systems: Unix (Linux, Solaris, Sun OS, HP-UX), MS Windows (95, NT, 2000), OS/2, MS-DOS, VAX/VMS.
Tools and Libraries: X.11/Motif, lex (flex), yacc (bison), Clearcase, CVS, Visual Studio, Rational Rose.
