Experience:

Software Security Consultant, HP Enterprise, April 2016 to May 2016. Using PKI technology, I designed a CA infrastructure using an existing CA Server. My contribution enabled a Java development team to produce jar files that are signed by a digital certificate in the trust chain with a Root CA Certificate distributed with the Windows OS so the jar file signature can be verified in an end user location. Project Manager, CGI, Sep2012 to present, 5th largest IT services company globally. May2015 to present. I started an agile scrum software development project for the USDA which is part of their IT modernization program. I also support DHS concerning IT issues. And, I am involved in new business development work. Dec2013 to May2015. Project manager on the virtual data center hosting Healthcare.gov. I identified gaps in operational readiness, using ITIL best practices as a guide, and managed a project to close gaps before the next open enrollment period. I also designed and implemented the program-wide KPI reporting system.

Sept2012 to Dec2013. Project manager of a software development project developing an enterprise natural resource management website for the US Dept of the Interior that distributes $30B per year, comprising the majority of the mineral royalty transactions managed by the DOI in the US. I managed a 14 member software development team, 8 direct reports, including remote onshore and offshore team members using agile/scrum methods. Skilled at agile team performance measurement, velocity improvement, and project planning using MS Project 2010 Pro. Java Developer/Project Manager, Texas A&M Univ., Feb2007 to Aug2012. I managed several software development projects for ITSS which is a TAMU System-wide shared service cost recovery center. Java and C# server side development of webapps on Windows and Linux using open source solutions where advantageous. Also, client side Javascript, JQuery, and Ajax development using DOM manipulation. On one project, I used PKI technology to design a CA infrastructure, I developed a Java server that creates digital certificates that can sign messages, and I designed a Java client that verifies signatures of signed messages.

Software Developer (on contract to Tivoli), Sept 1997 to 2001. I was a member of the development team of the product “Tivoli Secureway Server PKI.” This product was written in C++. I contributed to various features of the product, and learned about PKI technology.

Software Developer/Project Manager, (on contract to IBM Austin, Loral, and Motorola), Sept 1991 to 1997.

This included a one year contract as a PM on the FAA's Air Traffic Control Automation Project. Also, for 2 years I managed an IT project for a financial services company. Clients included IBM Austin, and Motorola Austin.

Senior Engineer/Project Manager, McDonnell Douglas Corp, May 1978 to Sept 1990. I had several project management, and engineering, roles on F15, F18, Tomahawk Cruise Missle, and Strategic Defence Initiative.

Accomplishments:

At CGI I managed a one year long project that developed an enterprise web application for the US Dept of the Interior using Java, Spring, Hibernate, and Oracle. The project budget is $1.4M, and the line of code count is 100,000 lines. The cost per hour achieved is

$56/hr using mostly US citizens. Funding for a Phase 2 of the project was won. At TAMU (ITSS), Project Manager of an IT project which imported the TAMU-SA campus web site, and Business School website, 1200 pages, into a Cascade CMS server, and added 3 new apps, 10/2011 – 4/2012. 5 project team members. New line of business for the department, establishing an ongoing business relationship.

At TAMU (ITSS), I designed and developed a Java server and client to be used in an emergency notification system that used PKI technology to create signed messages that can be verified at the end user receiving point. I designed the CA infrstructure using a root CA certificate distributed with the Windows OS.

Development Team Lead, multi-campus Enterprise application, MealPlanTracker, which tracks meal plan orders, enabling credit card purchases and student billing. 30 million dollars revenue yearly for the University. Working with EIS, I managed the integration of the webapp with Howdy for control of Parent Access using a web service. I managed the original implementation of parent purchases and mandatory freshmen resident meal plans. At TAMU (EIS), I developed several channels and servlets on Howdy Portal(JSP, Java, JQuery, DOM), 2009, 2010, including Parent Account Request channel for students(incl webservice client), 1098T viewer, Transfer Audit Report viewer, Faculty CV and Course Syllabus file upload servlet, Howdy Search channel, Directory Info Hold(PLSQL). Also developed a servlet that translates Transcript xml data from Banner into PDF for online viewing and download, used by students to obtain their transcript online from Howdy. The xml translation method I developed for “online transcript” was later copied by others for translation of every report generated by Banner.

At TAMU (EIS), I designed and developed an SSO system between Howdy, Banner, and E-Print based on TAMU CAS3. This is a unique IT solution in production, 150,000 users, 2008. I rebuilt the Howdy login design, and I reverse-engineered (hacked into) the Oracle Forms Server and changed the Oracle Login applet, to accomplish this. This is a solution that was not thought possible, and we got calls from other universities asking how I did it. This enabled the upgrade of the TAMU campus to CAS3. When deployed the first time in production, 6000 concurrent users the first day of Fall registration, zero(0) trouble tickets were opened.

At Washington University, while on a one year doctoral fellowship funded by Southwestern Bell, I developed medical image decompression methods which I implemented that made

“TeleRadiology” practical for the first time. This was published in an SPIE paper. Skillset:
