Hello,
Since July of 2007, I have been turning RIPL Corp (view antic's profile) from an insecure, unscalable, outsourced project into a fully extensible, object oriented, scalable, robust company. As a Senior Web Developer, working on an Agile team, managing a CSS developer and two 3rd party developers, I worked to completely rewrite the front-end, speed up load times, implemented a robust caching system, secure code and facilitate communications and planning between design, QA and development. Additionally, I am very security minded and convinced the team to organize a security audit task force, which ended up fixing some major holes and forming secure development thinking as a result. On October 15th, 2008, the company's investors felt the blow to the stock market and the board of directors wisely chose to lay off the entire company, but keep the product online.
As a Senior Web Developer, my motto, "Specialization is for insects," is no jest. Creating user interfaces and media delivery services on and off the Web, I know no bounding box from which to think outside. I have extensively worked with Flash, AS 2.0, JS, AJAX, XHTML/ DHTML, CSS, Illustrator CS2, Photoshop CS2, VS .NET, Debian and Ubuntu Linux, Apache, MySQL, SQL Server, PHP, Perl, and W3 web standards to deliver high quality web sites with marketable user interfaces.
I've also dabbled in more things than anyone would care to read about. But ask me.
Although I am a self starter who enjoys working at home at a personal pace, I also thrive in the rigid structure of assignments, deadlines and Agile planning. In an office environment I most enjoy a collectivist attitude where knowledge and experiences are shared in an open source fashion--but most of all, I want to join a team that has fun and kicks ass.
My resume is available in many formats, references and 5-year plan upon request:
