Hello,

I'm a technically-knowledgeable writing and marketing professional with a long-time background in the semiconductor industry.
I'm based in metro Seattle, and I've been living part of the time in the Bay Area.

My up-to-date plaintext resume is included within this message, below.

Two more eye-appealing. html versions of my resume are downloadable from http://www.geocities.com/minsq/chuck.html and http://www.geocities.com/minsq/chuckwriting.html

A Microsoft Word version of my resume is also available upon request.

Since 1996, I've been working in metro Seattle, metro Portland, and Silicon Valley. As of this writing, I'm back at my long-term home in Federal
Way, WA, a Seattle suburb.

I'm immediately available, and I'll change my location as necessary.
I'm open to either contract or permanent work, anywhere on the Pacific Coast. I'll consider other locations on a case-by-case basis. I'm used to working mostly on-site, to commutes of up to fifty miles each way, and to temporary relocations.

My job assignments have usually been some mixture of writing, marketing, and technology. In my most recent contract job, for QuickSilver Technology in
San José where I once was an employee, I was preparing a datasheet for a single chip with eleven computers on it.

Some of my other recent work assignments have been: two months full-time contract patent-writing at Impinj, Inc., in Seattle; a patent-writing job for a small Palo Alto client-server software startup;
and short-term full-time contract writing jobs for two Silicon Valley firms that manufacture GHz-range automatic test equipment (ATE).

Although much of my background is in VLSI semi-
conductors and in computer hardware, I've also worked at an enterprise-security-software firm and at those two ATE suppliers.

I would be delighted to discuss my credentials and background with you at some mutually convenient time. To reach me, please try email first; my email address is cwh2@earthlink.net

Then try my cellphone 206/354-8701.

I have home landline phones in Federal Way, WA, at 253/874-2640 and 253/838-1279, both equipped with answering machines. 206/383-3622 is a backup phone number.

Thanks for your consideration,

Chuck Hastings cwh2@earthlink.net
