    Excellent yet discounted Java/J2EE or C#/.NET/WCF development

    I am a seasoned professional software engineer, with a tremendous amount of experience in multiple programming languages and operating systems. I've done software for both scientific and commercial applications, in areas ranging from accounting to race-car data acquisition.

    I can pick up a new problem, develop an understanding quickly, and then rapidly produce a cost-effective solution. This goes for new programming languages as well. While I have a superlative amount of experience in C++, I have only a moderate amount of experience with C#. Nevertheless, my current C# skills probably already exceed many other professional programmers. Meanwhile, I have a great deal of experience with web applications using PHP, but I've only studied Java on paper and haven't yet done any actual Java or J2EE development. Also, I haven't done any web-based .NET or WCF work.

    Nevertheless, with my breadth of experience and superior analytical skills, I know I can conquer Java/J2EE and .NET/WCF in a matter of weeks, if not days. After all, it's all structured programming plus logical rules and tools for the rest.

    I want to do exactly that... add Java/J2EE and .NET/WCF to my arsenal of experience. I'm asking you to trust in me and hire me to work on your next software development project in this area. I'll offer you a highly discounted rate, either contract or W2, temporary or permanent. You'll be glad you gave me the chance.

    You can view my resume here. You can also see a few of my recommendations on my LinkedIn page here (You will see a public summary on this page. To see the recommendations, you need to click on "View Full Profile". A free LinkedIn login will be required).

    I specialize in C++, .NET, C# and other OOP; with applications experience running the gamut from databases to accounting to scientific analysis to e-commerce.
