I have 20+ years of experience in software engineering experience ranging from embedded systems development using microprocessor assembler to large business systems in COBOL and most things in between. I started building systems using Java in 1999. One of my recent assignments introduced me to Test Driven Development. Now I'm test-infected.
Here is a sampling of buzzwords from my currently exercised skillset: Java 5, JEE 1.4, Perl, Python, Unix shells and shell tools, Windows (NT/XP/Vista), Oracle 9i/10g, UML 2, OOA/D/P, Rational Rose/XDE, StarUML, Eclipse, NetBeans, JDeveloper, WebSphere, Tomcat, Oracle Application Server.
