Since the 1st of July 1998 and up to the present time I have been working as a programmer in PHP/MySQL, Visual FoxPro and C++ in one of the software-developer firms in St.Petersburg, Russia ( 11 years of work experience). During this time I have developed some programs in FoxPro/Visual FoxPro, C++ which are presently being sold. The web-site of the firm was also designed by me.

Any demonstration of my skills and samples of programming is possible.

- A budgeting program for the building industry (Visual FoxPro 6.0, DLL in C++). The program is presently being sold. It imports data from 2 other programs, makes all necessary calculations and prints the resulting forms to any DOS or Windows editors. MSWord 7 and 97/2000 are used as automation servers. Wide-format resulting forms can be automatically cut into pieces for printing in A3/A4 format. Some special features are included.

- Scheduling program for the building industry (Visual FoxPro 5.0). It allows to draw graphs for construction planning and scheduling for different scales and levels of construction and creates the corresponding building supply delivery forms. Wide-format resulting forms can be automatically cut into pieces for printing in A3, A4 or user-defined format. All the resulting documents are formed directly in the RTF-format, which significantly shortens the time of their export to MS Word. MS Word is used as an automation server. Some special features are included. The program has been tested successfully. It is going to be sold to building companies in the nearest future.

- A price-forming budgeting program (Visual FoxPro 6.0). The program is being developed by me. The program contains some nontrivial algorithms and prints some resulting forms to MS-Word in the RTF-format. Even while the work is not finished, the program could be demonstrated (as well as other programs) for confirmation of my skills and knowledge in programming.

- Software protection of our main programs against decompiling and illegal copying (Visual FoxPro, C++)

- Installer for our main budgeting program (Visual C++ - Win32 API). This is a small multithreaded application which checks for the necessary disk space on the selected drive, copies selectively the files of the budgeting program to the hard drive, installs the software protection drivers.

- Some programs and functions which are included and presently being sold as part of bigger budgeting programs.

- Multiple programs for database conversion (mostly PHP5/MySQL). The programs are quite nontrivial and required a lot of classes (all of which were created by me) in PHP5 with extensive use of MySQL. The programs are used for different region database conversion/correction/adjustments from MS Word/Excel/Plain Text (and some other formats) to our main budgeting program internal format. I constantly update the PHP classes and increase their functionality to make it possible to convert/correct new regional databases.

- The web-site of the firm where I worked most recently (as the head of a small Programming Department) was also designed by me (PHP/MySQL).

- I have completed multiple one-time web-projects (PHP4/PHP5/MySQL/JavaScript/AJAX) some of which required modification of existing code and some have been created from the scratch.
