Hello again to the net! I am Morris Kahn and I am looking for a job in St. Louis. I was laid off from my old job for economic reasons. I have software engineering experience in structured systems analysis, design, and programming, software quality assurance methodologies, database technology, and project leadership. I am also familiar with many micro, supermicro, and mini computers as well as a variety of operating systems and programming languages including UNIX, C, and Ada. I have also researched areas including fourth generation tools, software engineering productivity tools, change control systems, personal computer software and hardware, and networking. I am looking for opportunities to do software development on a project from start to finish. I am immediately available for either full time or consulting work. If you have such an opportunity or know about one, please give me a call at home or write to me.
