See further down for previous employment/description with this company .

• I was originally hired to write automated test scripts in Java , using the automated test platform for which I was the architect during my previous employment here.
• Since then, I have developed a distributed application that enables manual-test writers who are non-programmers to write automated Java test scripts in a very intuitive way, using a GUI.
• This GUI-based application is built directly from a database, allowing an non-programmer administrator to modify it.
• The application in effect turns English phrases into Java code.
• There is no analysis, the translation mappings exist in the database.
• The application takes an input source file template, user-selections, and other input, and outputs a complete Java automated test-script file.

Company develops websites for its clients, from graphics and front-end to business logic middle tier. They were tasked with re-doing the client s existing corporate site, moving from Cold Fusion to J2EE. I was brought in due to their lack of in-house Java/J2EE knowledge.

• Provided assistance/mentoring to their in-house architect on the project.
• Also designed and implemented different portions of the website functionality.
• Built the local office locator functionality. Included querying the datastore for the initial search criteria and caching it , and standard advance search and presentation techniques of the results summaries then hyperlinks to details. This included setting up a datasource for Websphere to use with data-connection pools. Built EJBs.
• Built an SMTP Java Bean to used to send emails from a form filled out by the user.
• Spherion decided to utilize another site s job search pages, but wished to retain the same look & feel, so I built an embedded browser function into the site. All requests/responses were routed through the embedded browsing function. Used session beans.
• Built a Java Bean to handle real-time stock quotes from a URL which came in the form of an XML document.
• Maintained an automated functional test suite to test the above functionality.
• Built a site crawler Java Bean to test all links on a page and determine whether http, mailto, onsite, offsite, invalid, etc. This assisted in knowing bad, missing links.
