\section{Education}

\section{Experience}
\subsection{Vocational}
% arguments 3 to 6 are optional
\cventry{2010--2011}{Computer Engineer}{VisionTree, Inc.}{San Diego}{CA}
{
  \begin{itemize}
    \item
  The old svn systems were difficult to work with, so I converted them
  to git repos served by gitosis and later gitolite.  Thanks to ssh keys,
  Visiontree is now able to merge branches more often and more easily.
    \item
  The git systems mentioned above are used by a lot of people, internal devs
  as well as third parties.  After helping several fellow developers
  serially and individually, I created a class to explain how to use git.
  I have given this class several times.  Developers from around the country
  have attended.
    \item
  One former developer created a suite of ruby scripts to hand HL7 protocol
  communications.  To make the service more reliable, I have documented the
  process of installing the scripts as different users and on new machines,
  as well as automated parts of it.
    \item
  A customer wanted the ability to show sections of stored surveys
  conditionally.  I made additions to the survey markup, ``vtjson'', and
  processing code, while remaining compatible with existing surveys.
    \item
  I decided to automate the setup of new Coldfusion developer stations with
  Expect.  Later, I translated into ruby and bash, languages the other
  developers are more familiar with.
    \item
  VisionTree's surveys have syntax errors which sometimes cause customer
  data loss.  In order to combat this, I generated an error reporter.  Errors
  were presented by an internal website and a gedit plugin.
  \end{itemize}
}
\cventry{2006--2010}{Computer Engineer}{Avaak, Inc.}{San Diego}{CA}
{
  \begin{itemize}
    \item
  Avaak needed to stress and log its wireless camera and server to pin down the
  communication breakdown.  My tools revealed that the server's memory maxed
  under a high number of camera connections.
    \item
  Sometimes the servers would be up but not doing their job correctly, so Avaak
  asked me to modify the simulators to monitor the servers more intelligently.
  Several months after I left, it would still send me detailed failure reports.
    \item
  A chem lab at UCSD wanted to characterize a reusable chemical sensor's
  appearance change.  Working under the direction of several professors, I
  developed quantifiers for the amount and type of change of the sensors.
  \end{itemize}
}
\cventry{2007}{Programming Languages Tutor}{UCSD}{San Diego}{CA}
{
  In CSE 130, I tutored students Programming Languages in the fall and winter
  quarters.  We covered different styles of programming through different
  languages: functional programming with OCaml; object oriented programming
  with python; logic programming with prolog.

\section{Personal Projects}
\cvline{this cv}{ The raw \LaTeX for generating this CV is available online at
  \httplink{github.com/ozzloy/cv}}
\cvline{py\_shell\_bot}{This was originally started because it was hard to
follow along as a teacher would type into the python repl during class.
Using this, the teacher (or any presenter) can type as they normally do and
students can follow along in an irc channel.
\httplink{github.com/ozzloy/py\_shell\_bot}}
\cvline{oble}{This project uses a camera to detect presence of a face.  The
program aggresively blanks the screen for power saving.  In addition, oble
allows one to watch in-browser videos without poking the keyboard and mouse to
prevent the screensaver.  I used C++ with OpenCV libs to create this program.
\httplink{gitorious.org/oble/oble}}
\cvline{technical blog}{\httplink{i-am-lucky.blogspot.com/} Mostly written as
a reference for myself, this blog is an account of my technical struggles.}
\cvline{imageclipper}{Having a set of labelled data helps with many
machine-learning projects.  I started with someone else's code base and modified
it to make labelling easier for me.  The tool helped me label data used for
training a car detector.  \httplink{github.com/ozzloy/imageclipper}}
