I am interested to discuss possible opportunities within your organization. I am confident that my educational background in both Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and my work experience will enable me to quickly adapt and help your corporation. My resume is enclosed for your review.

I have over 15 years of experience in Computer Science/Computer Engineering obtained while working as a Software Developer and as an university level Professor and Researcher. I designed and implemented software systems in both low and high level programming languages. I have project leadership and technical application development experience which was obtained while working as an Administrative and Technical Manager in Brazil and by teaching at both undergraduate and graduate-level in Brazil, Canada and the USA. Along with my theoretical and technical expertise, I have been instrumental in the development of user interfaces with a proven record of presentations at international conferences.

As a Professor I have taught courses in the various sub-fields of Computer Science such as Theory of Computation, Algorithms and Data Structures, Programming Languages and Compilers, Software Engineering, System Architecture, Databases, User Interface Design and Web Applications. As a Software Developer I have been responsible for the creation/modification of complex software systems such as a compiler for a language with dynamic syntax.
