Senior PHP Programmer

 

Claero Solutions

Calgary/Alberta

 

Designing, building, testing and maintaining software for the oil and gas industry. At Claero I was given the task of creating a new application to replace their existing one as the latest version.

The application handled millions of dollars worth of transactions for several large corporations in the oil and gas industry. It had to interface with 3rd party software from QuickBooks to Digital Oilfield's invoicing system.

Technologies included PHP4 and PHP5, MySQL, Postgres, GTK and GTK2.

 

5/2000 - 7/2006

VP Technology

 

Concillio Inc

Calgary/Alberta

 

Concillio is a database backend web development company. As VP Technology I handled all aspects of programming and program development. I would typically meet with clients to discover their needs and then design, build and implement a database solution for them. Afterwards if the client hosted their system with us I managed all the web stats and maintained the database systems.

Often Concillo would work with a separate design firm and then I also integrated their front end with our backend. Typically I would use AOLserver webserver and a PostgreSQL database and program dynamically in TCL. I also used Javascript in most projects along with DHTML objects.

I was often in charge of projects ranging from $9000 to $60,000. All projects I lead were completed on time and on budget.

Software Developer

 

E-complex

Calgary/Alberta

 

The work I did at E-complex was very similar to Concillio but on a much smaller scale. It was with e-complex where I used Oracle and the ArsDigita Community Server toolkits in commercial ventures.

Teaching Assistant

 

University of Calgary

Calgary/Alberta

 

I taught several courses in introductory programming in Pascal and logic circuit design with Chipmonk Diglog. I was responsible for creating my own lesson plans, examples, tests and review sessions.

As a teaching assistant I educated students in the use of UNIX, Netscape and Emacs, developed lesson plans and prepared material, provided assistance to students in class time and office hours, evaluated projects and assignments and administered exams.

I also supervised a computer lab of up to 300 students and provided help with a variety of assignments.
