The Boeing Company Universal City, TX
Software Engineer Jan 1995 to Mar 2001
Duties encompass all phases of the software life-cycle, including: requirements analysis,
design, construction, testing (validation), and maintenance.
The majority of the work was on the Air Force's T-1A Training Management System. The
system is written in ADA , Assembler, and C. It manages all aspects of pilot training,
including aircraft scheduling, simulator scheduling, academic scheduling, timeline
information, reports, grading and data warehousing. There was also 16 and 32 bit
Windows and database development with Borland's Delphi for report generation. Work
on this system included the following:
Successfully maintained and upgraded the scheduling modules of this system for six
years. This complex part of the system schedules flying and academic activities
including aircraft, flight simulators, instructor pilots, student pilots, and lessons. The
system measures student progress on a time line that can adjust for attrition due to
variables like weather or mechanical failure, flags potential problems like syllabus
deviations, excessive crew duty hours, and overdue aircraft. A few of the modifications
made were the addition of a time line information window to give an "at a glance" view
of a flight's or a squadron's flying progress, adding the capability to schedule
non-students, designing and implementing an auto-refresh between various modules
running on different workstations triggered when data changed, and improving system
performance by improving the logic used to track lessons and sorties.
Successfully maintained and upgraded the TMS Merit Assignment Selection System
(MASS) module for six years. This module "racks and stacks" the graduating pilots of
each class at all T-1A training bases. The number one student gets first pick at an
assignment and so on. Work on this module included: verifying the statistical

calculations, modifying the statistical calculations and program logic to meet changes
in Air Force regulations, modifying the program logic for local awards based on
different criteria, allowing for foreign students and students from other branches of
service.

providers and stakeholders.
Member of a 4 person team that designed and developed a system which has 16 bit
dos, 16 bit Windows, and 32 bit Windows modules. The system provides security,
communicates with legacy systems, generates tests, launches CBT lessons developed
with Authorware, and exchanges data with other systems.
