EMPLOYMENT

Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC)  (March, 1983 to date)

Missile Defense Agency (Aug '06 to date): Mr. Neuse is the lead software developer for the Sustainment branch of the Ground Test Tools Group. His duties include the conceptualization, design, implementation, and testing of Microsoft .NET software developed in C# and Visual Basic.

FEDSIM Project (Jan '99 to Jul '06): Mr. Neuse was the Manager of the Systems Management Branch, and as such had oversight over all software development, web development, and system integration projects on the FEDSIM project. He provided systems analysis and development support for the Headquarters, United States European Command, located in Stuttgart-Vaihingen, Germany. Mr. Neuse was responsible for evaluating potential software products and integrating new products and services into the existing baseline, which utilizes Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 2003 Advanced Server. He also was responsible for developing and maintaining solutions to complex problems involving client/server interaction. Mr. Neuse designed, implemented, and deployed a broad spectrum of Windows-based software, including resource management, security, and network management tools; he also created distributed client/server databases using Microsoft Office products and Microsoft SQL Server.

Prior to this position, Mr. Neuse was Deputy Manager in the Information Assurance Branch, where he assumed the role of Lead Engineer, and was responsible for interpreting and responding to DISA STIG requirements. To facilitate this process, he designed and implemented utilities and automated procedures to monitor the distribution of software updates and enhance the security posture of the networks at EUCOM.

MORI Project (Apr '98 to Dec '98): Mr. Neuse was the lead developer for a large-scale document storage, imaging, and redacting system. As such, he was responsible for the on-going maintenance and integration of all facets of system, including both server and client components. This position demanded a high level of expertise in the Windows architecture, the Windows NT security architecture, the Win16 and Win32 APIs, Microsoft Visual C++ (v1.52/5.0/6.0) and the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC). In addition, Mr. Neuse worked on a daily basis with Microsoft SQL, and began the process of porting MORI client components from Windows 3.1 to Windows NT. Mr. Neuse was also responsible for providing direct support to the MORI user community: analysis of emerging requirements, resolution of client and server-level operational issues, and installation/distribution of MORI components.

Center for the Advancement of Language Learning (Feb '98 to Apr '98): At CALL, Mr. Neuse provided expert consulting on the design, implementation, and administration of a Windows NT-based Internet (Web) server. He designed and implemented an NT security architecture that allowed multiple levels of access to web-based information via conventional browsers; he also created procedures to allow pro-active monitoring to detect intrusion attempts. Mr. Neuse developed Microsoft Access modules that generated HTML pages to create an automated interface between Access and the Internet Information Server (IIS).

Technology Training Lab (Oct '97 to Jan '98): Mr. Neuse conceived, proposed, and created the Technology Training Lab to assist CSC personnel in technical training and certification. To accomplish this, he single-handedly designed and implemented a multi-segment Windows NT network, which included beta versions of Windows NT 5.0 and Windows 98. As part of the network design, Mr. Neuse implemented an intra-net using both DNS and WINS servers, as well as full DHCP services. He developed procedures for the creation and management of user accounts, including roaming profiles and server-based private storage.

8020 Project (Oct '94 to Sep '97): As the Lead Software Engineer, Mr. Neuse was responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of a turnkey system utilizing the C/C++ language and 80x86 assembler in a DOS environment. He documented, maintained, and enhanced over 100,000 lines of mixed C/C++ and assembler code, identifying and removing significant flaws in the existing design and implementation. The technical aspects of this project demanded a high level of expertise in the internal architecture of DOS and BIOS, as well as PCMCIA hardware and software. In addition, Mr. Neuse conducted extensive work in security issues, including virus detection/prevention, and anti-spoofing measures; he also completed an in-depth evaluation and case-study of the Windows NT security architecture as part of the customer’s long-term planning. Mr. Neuse also conducted formal reviews and presentations to the customer, and acted as a liaison to different groups within the customer’s organization.

Counter Narcotics Center (Feb '91 to Sep '94): Located on-site, Mr. Neuse supported over a hundred users, providing ad hoc technical evaluations, problem resolution, and requirements analysis for OS/2-based system and interface tasks. He was responsible for evaluating potential software products and integrating new products into the existing baseline. Mr. Neuse's achievements included: creation of Lotus Notes databases, development of a Clipper application shell to facilitate timely development of turnkey database systems and the implementation of several software tools that automated complex textual-analysis algorithms. Other activities included: design and implementation of OS/2 Presentation Manager and DOS-based applications and utilities using C/C++ and 80x86 assembler, and the integration of hardware/software multimedia tools.

Integrated Network Management & Control (Sep '87 to Feb '91): On the INMC project, Mr. Neuse was a member of a small team that developed an innovative network management tool from theoretical concept to functional prototype. He was single-handedly responsible for design and implementation of the prototype Graphical User Interface (GUI) for this system using a combination of C, Pascal, and 68000 assembler on the Apple Macintosh. Mr. Neuse also participated in the design/implementation of a VAX-based host system utilizing TCP/IP, CMIS/CMIP, and the Oracle relational database.

PeaceShield Project (Jan '87 to Sep '87): On the PeaceShield project, Mr. Neuse coded, tested, and documented portions of a bilingual (English/Arabic) command & control system using VAX FORTRAN and the Ingres relational database.

Petromin Project (Mar '83 to Jan '87): For the Ministry of Petroleum & Mineral Resources, Mr. Neuse co-authored policies for the Saudi Arabian Oil Ministry governing configuration and management of PC resources. He designed, implemented, and maintained bilingual software on IBM and Apple II PCs, including small and medium-scale Management Information systems; he also installed and administered several small to medium-scale Ethernet-based Local Area Networks. Mr. Neuse worked directly with client personnel in providing both technical training and non-technical presentations for the client’s technical staff and senior executives.
