EXPERIENCE:

GSI Lumonics (Memory Repair Systems Group)                   Wilmington, MA
March 1998 -- current

As a software engineer/senior software engineer, I work as a part of a
small team on the control software for laser memory repair machines.  The
machines fire a laser at a wafer of computer memory with sub-micron
precision, cutting electrical connections in order to activate redundant
rows.  The software is written in C and C++ and consists of an XView-based
user interface running on a Sun workstation and a pair of VME-based
real-time systems running VxWorks.  In addition to designing, coding, and
debugging parts of the software system itself, work has included writing
serial drivers, examining generated 68060, x86 and PowerPC assembly, and
analyzing behavior of the mechanical and optical components of the system.

MIT Information Systems (Distributed Computing and Network Services)
                                                                  Cambridge
February 1994 --- February 1998

Worked as a student developer in the Athena Software Service group.  My
primary tasks were to maintain, debug, and/or design and write several
client-server systems.  Other tasks included upgrading and integration of
free and commercial third-party software into MIT's Athena workstation
environment.

MIT Information Systems (Computing Support Services)              Cambridge
February 1993 --- December 1995

Worked as a student consultant for Athena's On-Line Consulting system,
providing support to users of MIT-developed and third-party software
installed on MIT's public UNIX workstations.

Institut za fiziku Sveucilista u Zagrebu                    Zagreb, Croatia
Summer 1994

Worked on interpretation of thermal and electrical conductivity
measurements of K_{0.3} Mo O_{3} (`blue bronze').  Published in _Synthetic
Metals_.

MIT Center for Space Research                                     Cambridge
February 1993 --- August 1993

Wrote parts of simulation and data analysis software for the MIT Faraday
cup solar wind experiment which is a part of the WIND satellite, launched
in November 1994.

EDUCATION:

Massachusetts Institute of Technology                         Cambridge, MA

Received a BS in Physics in February 1998.  The work leading up to my
thesis, _Quantum-mechanical return probability of a wave packet and its
relationship to classical periodic orbits_, involved numerical simulation
of quantum-mechanical and classical dynamical systems.

MISCELLANEOUS:

Computing projects

I designed and wrote a WWW gateway server to provide Web access to a text
conferencing system named Discuss.  I have actively maintained several of
SIPB's server machines, running various UNIX variants.  I have extensive
experience in the use of C, PERL, source control and debugging tools on
UNIX platforms.

Citizenship and visa status

I am a citizen of Croatia.  I am currently working in the United States
under an H-1B visa from my current employer.
