SEEKING WORK - Argentina
My name is Victor, a 28 year old developer living in Argentina.
Expertise:
* PHP
* MySQL
* JavaScript
* HTML 4 and 5
* C#
* Unix administration
Secondary skills:
* Java
* DirectX and OpenGL
Background:
I've been programming LAMP based sites for about 9 years and I'm currently working for a very large mobile games developer for 4 years now.
My work in there consists mostly of the following:
* Integrating customer billing for mobile sites, both North American and South American (closed carrier APIs and gateways such as Paypal and Amazon Payments)
* On-call support outside office hours (in which I solve issues with firewalls, programming mistakes made by developers, etc)
* Shop development and design. Basically, these are websites that display content and allow purchases with the aforementioned billing methods.I also focus on improving our custom, in-house developed framework that drives most of the websites.
Previous endeavors include:
* PHP programming and Unix administration at a large South American portal (from 2002 to 2005). It proved to be immensely informative, since we had to deal with a site that gathered several hundred thousands pageviews per day.
* PHP programming and database administration at a credit-report company (from 2005 to 2007). This also proved to be quite helpful, as I had to deal with an ill-maintained IBM Informix database, with poor normalization along with hundreds of millions of rows.
