Who Metrowerks
Where Austin TX
When 9/1995 – 5/1999
What Version Control Systems Architect (Product Engineering Manager)

Overview:

Metrowerks Corporation designed, developed, marketed and supported professional software development tools used by programmers to create software applications. Metrowerks developed and sold programming tools in four major market segments: the desktop Windows® and Macintosh® market, the embedded proprietary operating systems market, the real-time operating systems (“RTOS”)/Windows® CE market and the Java technology market. In 1999 it was acquired by Motorola Corporation.

Achievements:

  • Designed and implemented Visual SourceSafe for Macintosh (C++ on MacOS)
  • Designed the CodeWarrior IDE version control plug-in API
  • Coordinated third party CodeWarrior version control plug-in efforts
  • Managed six releases of Visual SourceSafe for Macintosh (C++)
  • Managed several CodeWarrior IDE (C++) embedded products (m*Core/SH)
  • Managed the CodeWarrior ClearCase version control plug-in development

Recommendations:

“Charles was my boss and co-coder on Metrowerks SourceSafe. He provided excellent guidance and planning on a challenging integration of code from two very different companies, Microsoft and Metrowerks. He also was a very good intermediary between those companies. His great attention to detail and commitment to the project borders on obsession sometimes and I mean that in a good way.” March 28, 2007

“I worked under Charles to test several releases of Visual SourceSafe for Macintosh. Charles had an excellent understanding of this complex project and was generally able to devise and communicate effective test strategies for the Quality Assurance group to employ. Charles made excellent use of scare resources to maintain realistic schedules and product ship dates.” November 3, 2005

Peter Barnes, Software Developer, Metrowerks
worked indirectly for Charles at Metrowerks


“I started working with Charles in early 1998 when I joined Metrowerks. I found him to be dedicated and very knowlegable about the software he was developing, with a concentration on debugging obscure problems and working on code that was being integrated from outside development teams.” July 25, 2005
