I am currently located in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This is about 20 minutes away from silicon valley.... aka the San Francisco Bay Area
After much thought I have decided to go back into the work force for 5 or 10 years. Rather than starting to spam out my resume - it seems logical that of the thousands of members here 5 or 10 of them probably have connections locally... so I am asking for someone to do an introduction for me. Pass on my resume - that sort of thing.
I have a BSEET from DeVry University (4.0 Valedictorian)
I have an MSEE from Stanford University
I have 10 years experience working at a National Laboratory (Sandia, managed by Lockheed martin)
I have 5 years experience running every aspect of a small business
That is just my list of "meal tickets" - my real experience (and value) is all the time I have spent developing my hobbies. I consider my self a "generalist who specializes" - meaning I am a polytechnic - I know many, many different trades - but not just at the surface. I have both breadth and depth - as I throw myself into each new venture completely.
My greatest skill is probably developing LabView systems.... test systems, data gathering and display, you name it. There is nothing that I can not build using Labview and NI parts.
So - here are a list of cities that your friends or colleges may work at. I can commute to any of these places.
Santa Cruz
Santa Clara
San Jose
Palo Alto
Mountain View
Sunnyvale
Milpitas
Campbell
Los Gatos
Almaden
Morgan Hill
Fremont
Union City
I am totally open to ideas. I can work full time, part time, contract, or consult. I make enough doing what I am doing now to eat - so I dont fall into the 99% that need a "full time job with benefits". In reality - I dont really want to work full time. Part time would be a dream - even one day a week :wink: All the same to me.
The truth of the truth is that making enough money to take care of my wife and kids via my small business is just too time consuming and stressful. Most of what I do does not leverage my skills and abilities... it is almost all customer support, shipping, procurement, production, etc. My real skills are R&D and problem solving.
Yea - so you know me. I am a bit of a mad man... not the guy who is going to show up in a pressed suit. I am looking for *real work* with a *real* group of people. T-Shirt kind of people.
If you think you can help please let me know and I will pass along my (pretty out of the box) resume.
thanks,
