EMPLOYMENT    Obtain position as a software developer working on
OBJECTIVE     challenging and exciting projects where I can apply my
              technical skills.

WORK          Junior Software Developer, Radar/Digital Systems
EXPERIENCE      December 2001 - present
              Tutor and Grader for Compiler Design I, UC Santa Cruz,
                Fall 2000 and Spring 2001
              Tutor and Grader for Data Structures, UC Santa Cruz,
                Spring 2001

PROJECTS      Implemented the front end of a compiler for a language that
              is a subset of C using C. Used Flex and Bison to generate
              the scanner and parser.

              Developed the back end of a compiler, translating intermediate
              code into Sparc assembly code. This was written in C.    

              Using Perl, wrote various scripts that accessed MySQL databases
              for an on-line company named www.mgtauction.com.

              Applying object-oriented programming (OOP) and design (OOD),
              created a GUI multi-person drawing program where multiple
              painters shared one canvas using Java. Capable of keeping
              separate pens and drawing mode for server and client.

              Added capabilities to the DLX operating system (written in
              C), namely semaphores, a simple shell, two-level page tables,
              Spawn() and Wait() system calls, various user traps, and a
              virtual disk file system.

              Worked on a game prototype for pmmps.org using Python.
              Developed the map and turn modules.

              Created a GUI camera icon component where user can control
              camera from a browser by executing XML-RPC calls for a company
              named Radar/Digital Systems. These controls include: dragging
              the line of position to pan the camera, adjusting a diamond
              icon back and forth to tilt the camera. Also, the camera icon
              rotates to keep in synch with its line of position. This was
              written in Java.
