urity training, performed weekly and other scheduled audits on complex UNIX and
Windows systems, conducted inventories of unclassified and classified materials,
and tested trusted computing systems. Developed and implemented guidelines for
test activities to include the Software Standards and Procedures Manual (SSPM)
and reviewed software unit specifications and design documentation. Led various
types of tests, including ad hoc, stress, boundary, acceptance, and regression;
and prepared test plans, test scenarios, and test cases on Windows, Macintosh, a
nd UNIX platforms, and web environments. Operated and maintained complex simulat
ors, such as: Operational Flight Trainers (OFTs), Weapons Systems Trainers (WSTs
), and surface warfare simulators.

Led Software Engineering Process Group (SEPG) to produce quality documentation,
plans, and procedures to ensure compliance with the overall business policies an
d based on the practices documented in the Software Engineering Institute (SEI)
Capability Maturity Model (CMM). Implemented automated testing and Configuration
Management (CM) tools, website, Internet and Intranet browsers, and ActiveX tec
hnology; conducted and documented review activities, inspections, audits, and ve
rified adherence to the Quality Assurance (QA) Plan.
Directed multiple types of tests, including ad hoc, stress, boundary, acceptance
, and regression using various automated test tools, and prepared test scenarios
for C++ and Visual Basic applications on Windows, DOS, and UNIX, platforms, and
 client-server and web environments. Developed test plans and reviewed requireme
nts, attended design reviews, and analyzed impacts on testing for Rapid Applicat
ion Development (RAD) tasks; developed test strategies and test cases, generated
test data, and verified that the product met the functional requirements.
