Career Objectives
A quick intro, my name is Joe, I am 32 years old, I am a disabled veterans, and I have been working in the software / database development field for over 5 yrs. I started out working with SQL Server where I developed a system that combined 5 different enterprise databases into one SQL Server database so that the data could later be analyzed and flagged for non-encrypted personal information. Next I began working as a mobile developer developing on IPhone and later Android and Windows Phone. During my time as a mobile developer, I developed over 80 mobile apps that are currently available on the app stores including Bluetooth Baby, Touch and Color Coloring Books, Puzzle Me, and many more. After that I took a job working as a Java / Mainframe developer working with DB2, mainframe, WebSphere, MQ, WMB and other technologies to maintain an enterprise web application used for billing and enrollments. I continue to seek out opportunities where I will prosper the most.
A little more about me, I was team lead for the Android and Windows development team and I was awarded employee of the year in 2012. I have experience in many areas of technology including java, .Net, mobile, and even mainframe. I'm passionate about all areas of technology, but I'm really looking now to get back into java development so I can focus everything I've learned into the one area of technology that I truly enjoy working in. I would like to make it the path of the rest of my career and then continue to grow in that area.
