Professional Experience:
-----------------------

Granada Systems Design Inc., NY - April 1989 to Present

Dec. 1991 - Present
Senior Systems Engineer
Lead Programmer for a group of two programmers to design, develop and 
maintain supervisory tool programs in 'C' under OS/2 that controls factory 
floor and performs data collection for IBM, East Fishkill, NY.  Projects 
place much emphasis on code reuse.

Responsibilities include meeting with IBM hardware and software engineers 
for developing specification, documenting proposed changes and implementing 
test plan for factory floor.

* Implemented a large scale tool control software interfacing with tools 
  on a network issuing NET BIOS calls and chemical delivery system to pump 
  chemicals.  The operator interface to the system is through Presentation 
  Manager screens that also displays the tool status in semi real-time fashion.
* Designed and developed tool controller communication software over SECS 
  link utilizing Message Level Interface package.  Software was developed in C
  under OS/2 operating system and also utilized CScape data entry/edit package.


April 1989 - Nov. 1991
Systems Engineer
Lead Programmer to design, develop and maintain supervisory tool programs for 
IBM, East Fishkill, NY.

* Designed, developed and implemented NC data for downloading process 
  information to tools in 'C' under OS/2.  Software makes heavy use of 
  threads and OS/2 Inter Process Communication facilities like queues and 
  semaphores.  Provided 24 hour floor support.
