pdf xml <resume> <name>Shane Celis</name> > Find a challenging and fun work environment that allows me to pursue school full time and have a life. An environment that offered part-time employment would be ideal. </objective> <qualifications> I have five years of industry work experience. Three of which were hard won at a high paced startup company. The last two years I have spent at a larger company learning more about politics than I prefer. </qualifications> <work-history> <company name="Sun Microsystems" start-date="April 2003" end-date="Present"> <title>Software Engineer (MTS)</title> I worked in the Quality Engineering team that created a new architecture for doing automated testing that significantly extended coverage in comparison to the conventional paradigm. </company> <company name="Terraspring, Inc." start-date="April 2000" end-date="April 2003"> <title>Software Engineer</title> Our code base was 99% Java. When I faced having to program against interactive processes that threatened to force us to use a mixed environment of Expect/Perl or Expect/TCL, I wrote a 100% Java Expect implementation. </company> </work-history> <skill name="Java" years="5"> This is my current language of choice. It's verbose as all heck; it sometimes feels like it's the worst of both worlds: interpreted and compiled; but it gets the job done. </skill> <skill name="ObjC" years="3"> I am the author and maintainer of the Free Software project uControl on Mac OS X. For any old school unix hacker, it's a killer app; it remaps the caps lock key to a control key for one thing. </skill> <skill name="Perl" years="2"> I can't write Perl anymore. I find myself grasping for OO practices whenever I attempt anything more complex than stream manipulation. </skill> <skill name="Python" years="0.5"> My friend and I wrote whatsbetter.com in an effort to learn Python and find out what's the best thing ever. I learned: Python > Perl. </skill> <interests> I enjoy reading mainly non-fiction pertaining to philosophy, evolutionary psychology, language, and laymen's physics. I used to skateboard; I've taken up surfing in its stead. Lastly, I'm a huge fan of nethack, and I intend to port it to the gameboy if I ever have the time. </interests> </resume>
