Cubik Media, San Francisco, CA, USA

Senior Web Developer:  Mar 2007 to Oct 2007

Web Developer:  Mar 2005 to Feb 2007

I got my start in programming at this small video-on-demand web company, transitioning from C/C++ to C#. Oddly, I had to learn the ASP.NET page life cycle in order to circumvent it, as only the programmers used Visual Studio to produce websites. Over time, I wrote a series of applications to automate a significant portion of the production process of converting DVD's to multiple encrypted media formats, resulting in a 25% speed increase. Before moving on, I ended up helping manage 3 programmers.
