Resume as a Programmer

This is a very brief, very simple resume for Ron Beatty

e-mail: RSBeatty@gmail.com

My ideal job is highly technical computer work involving a great deal of research, planning and brainstorming, either solo or as a member of a motivated and enthusiastic team. Language and operating system are non-problems because I learn extremely quickly and am usually up to speed and productive within a month.

The more technical the work, the better I like it. I am very capable techie. My recent favorites are UNIX, JAVA, and Unified Modeling Language (UML) although I still like C and C++, and yes, I do Windows and build web sites. A job involving J2EE would appeal to me. It appears very interesting and challenging.

Googling Ron Beatty or Rambo genealogy returns my sites first.

My alma mater is MIT, which granted me an SB in theoretical mathematics in 1970.

My twenty years of professional experience includes work as a computer programmer, applications programmer, systems programmer, systems analyst, UNIX system administrator and rapid prototyping systems developer.

In most environments I rapidly become the resident expert in the language or application being used.

My favorite challenge is solving knotty problems which require ingenious solutions.

I have excellent communication skills and an overdose of the Protestant work ethic. If there is a need, it is not unusual for me to work 60 to 80 hours a week. My stamina and attention span support those long hours, and my productivity and focus benefit from them.

I am also a very effective public speaker, and enjoy making presentations and teaching.

I can provide professional references. One of my references is a former boss who has hired me three times for projects involving three different languages, OSes, and machines. Here is a link to my six-page, detailed resume covering my 35-year career.

If you are looking for other qualifications, here is the alphabet soup from previous jobs (with links to interpretations): Windows, BAL, BASIC, C, CDL, CICS, COBOL, COGO, DECAL, FAP, FORTRAN, HTML, ICETRAN, JAVA, JCL, MAD, MULTICS, MS-DOS, OS-360, OS/MVT, OS/VS1, PL1, RPG, SPSS, UNIX, UML, VIDEO/370, VM, XENIX, and assembler languages for PDP, Tempo, GE and IBM computers.
