Software Internationalization Engineer - Lead Engineer for Internationalization (I18N)
In this contracting position, I acted as both I18N mentor and project lead for the team with which
I was working. The project consisted of re-engineering an existing application to conform to given
internationalization requirements. My duties included performing most of the engineering work,
assigning internationalization duties to my team members, and tutoring them in internationalization.
My team and I executed a standard phase-by-phase workflow, as detailed in my initial proposal to them.
From project start to finish my responsibilities included maintaining the quality of the work,
reporting to project managers the status of the work, and full documentation. |

Software Internationalization Engineer - Engineering lead for Internationalization (I18N) projects
In this position, I executed a standard workflow for each project. First, a client relationship was
established where we determined the client’s needs. Then, a software analysis was performed to
determine the requirements of providing solutions for these needs. This involved analyzing client
code for restrictions related to international issues. The analysis contained all related issues and
a full estimate, including the scope of the work and number of people to complete the work. Once the
estimate was agreed upon, solutions were established and then implemented within a team. After the
implementation, the organization and execution of a QA process was performed, either provided by the
client or by our team. |

Software Localization Engineer II - Engineering lead for localization projects.
This position included analyzing software for localization and providing engineering quotes,
