I had a break from Feb 94 to Mar 95 for my MBA studies.

Designed and programmed an internal system for tracking card-production in Novit AS. The system now uses Progress v7.3 and has been extended to reformat input & output for PIN-production and control the whole process from input from the card-order-systems to the output of internal card-productions or output to external card-production. Redesigned and rewrote most of Choice Hotels bonus-card system to meet demands of internationalisation (with danish and swedish offices).

I also managed consultants responsible for integration of Tuxedo messaging middleware with Progress.

Working primarily with Webspeed, web-applications and Progress RDBMS.

Progress Software Corp

Web Development / Eclipse

Principal Software Engineer

I transferred to Development to help out with Progress' Dynamics. To begin with I worked remotely from home in Phoenix, but later relocated to work from Progress's office in Nashua, NH. I have been developing the Javascript / DHTML frontend for Dynamics Web and major parts of the backend. From 2003 the focus has shifted on Java and Eclipse. My pet project Progress 4GL Plugin for Eclipse got a lot of attention, which I also received a bonus for. It finally resulted in a corporate wide strategy to change all tools to the Eclipse framework.
