Video Resume: Jim Harris - IT Product Development Manager

Email: jim@cf-toolbox.com Website: www.cf-toolbox.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harrisjamesl Hello, I’m Jim Harris and I’m the person to lead your product development team. My background in Information Technology goes all the way back to 1981 where as a member of the United States Army I was a telecommunications specialist in the Signal Corps. Here I learned the cornerstones of our digital world, the importance of organization and the principals of leadership. During my tenure I was a technologies instructor and technical writer, the ultimate in business development as a recruiter. The highest award I received was the Legion of Merit for my technical expertise as a member of the Patriot Missile Battalion defending Jerusalem during First Gulf War. After my honorable discharge I designed electronic components for Escod Industries, was a staff writer for The Taylorsville Times and was a fiber optic field engineer for Siecor (now called Corning Cable). All the while I was working those jobs I was also programming websites. So my internet programming experience goes all the way back to writing pearl scripts to interact with an Access database. After my ‘portfolio’ of websites and clients was purchased by Computer Wise I began working for Bank of America where I built the application they still use today to track all their Real Estate Holdings. Once finished, a recruiter convinced me to relocate from North Carolina to New York City where I was employed by New York University to build NYUOnline.com. Once that was complete I was offered the lead programming position with Lawtrac, a position which I held for fifteen years and when the company was sold I had attained the title of Vice President of Product development. There I functioned not only as the primary developer, but was able to tap into my marketing skills I obtained as a recruiter, the networking knowledge from my Signal Corps days, my technical writing capabilities and my leadership competencies. I was involved with every aspect of the company. I helped to build that company from the brink of bankruptcy in 2001 to one which was considered a market leader. Our clientele represented a number of industries including retail, defense, manufacturing and financial. I developed a personal working relationship with all of them allowing me to provide the marketing team an easy product to sell, the support team a product that was easy to use and troubleshoot and the custom programming team a flexible product which they could easily attach. We passed every security audit, operated internationally handling languages and currencies, I even introduced the first enterprise-wide document management system as a part of the product in 2003.
