volunteer profile

David Carpus
Eastern Standard Time

After the past 11 years working primarily with military contractors on simulation systems I wish to get back to my 'web application' roots.

 

 Founder - Carpus Computer Consulting

May 2016 Present (8 months)

 

Senior Consultant - Presagis

2007 – May 2016 (9 years)

During the initial phases of the merging of the companies, I led a team of senior engineers in the evaluation of development tool-sets to be used as the new corporate standard.

Together with the engineering and support organization, I improved the relationship with a critical large account and shifted their position from dropping the use of our products to standardizing on them for future projects.

I worked with product management in developing requirements and use cases for product development road-maps.

 

Research Software Engineer -- Alion Science and Technology

2005 – 2007 (2 years)

Initially hired as a senior engineer, I developed and documented conceptual models used for Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF) modeling Anti-Submarine Warfare Virtual At Sea Trainer (ASW VAST) program requirements.

When the need was identified, I transitioned from a role as a senior engineer to the Configuration Manager for the ASW VAST program. This required retroactively implementing system wide controls to ensure compliance.

 

Application Developer -- eSchool Solutions, Inc.

February 2004 – December 2005 (1 year 11 months)

I worked on a team as a full stack developer for a new SaaS system marketed to K-12 school systems in the US for tracking CEUs and course sessions management.

 

Member of Technical Staff -- Lucent Technologies / Agere Systems

October 1997 – December 2002 (5 years 3 months)

I was initially hired to maintain a COTS LIMS system based on MSAccess. As the system was not designed for the volume of data being entered, I replaced it with a custom system that combined both desktop and web based interfaces.

Based on requested upgrades, I added both an intra-departmental billing system and incoming inspections tracking for over $1 million in materials.

 

Software Developer -- Analysis & Technology, Inc

1995 – 1997 (2 years)

I performed minor maintenance/development work on an existing system which progressed to a full time rewrite of a distributed document management (DMS) system that was synchronized between locations.

While the distributed locations obtained permanent Internet connections the distributed DMS system was architected to an early web based application, removing the need for the phone banks.
