Dear Sir or Madam:
I have been involved with software/system design and the architecture of commercial products including
Medical devices which interface to a Java or .NET Host platform application. All communications is accomplished using C++/sockets across Wireless, Ethernet, or Dial-Up. Remote connectivity features allow
improved customer support and a common interface shared by the Java or .NET Host is used to integrate
communications between device/equipment and the Host.
My previous experience managing software projects consisting of C++/Java/. NET provided me with a
Tool set allowing mixings technologies in a perspective independent of operating systems. I have used Windows .NET CE in a wireless communication product to link clients to my previous employers system. I designed the client Web Interface using the .NET/C# development environment and used the McCabe code automation test tool to verify this design.
This client interface, which is part of the security based password interface at my former company's web site, is used to allow companies like Baird to carry on financial business at their customer's offices anywhere in the world. Managed build environment, production code moves, and client test server support. Participated in client testing and technical support in resolving client debug issues. Maintained department web site and software metrics/configuration management of all client servers.
I am willing to learn your business and utilize my project management, computer skills, and self-starter motivation to further expand your business I can be reached at my cell telephone 1-262-***-****.
Sincerely,
William C. Becker
