Looking for a quick summary of my background?
Download my resume in Microsoft Word or PDF format.
I have a passion for Software Engineering and because of that, have a
diverse background in various technologies and tools in the field. I
just finished my Masters in Computer Science at USC and excited about
opportunities in the industry.
I have tried my hands in Social Networks, Digital Multimedia/Image
processing, Front End & Back End Web Development, Mobile Development,
and Database designing & development, using various programming
languages like C/C++, Java, Perl, ActionScript, JavaScript, PHP, JSP,
MySQL, and Postgres. I am also skilled in data portability with JSON,
XML, and a ton of relevant frameworks and API's.
Currently exploring Software Engineering opportunities and excited about
what the future holds in web and mobile space. If you are looking for a
Software Engineer with a very diverse background, and feel like my skill
set is something that can be an asset to your company, please get in
contact with me so we can discuss the opportunity.
Developed an A/V interface and computed sets of metrics that scan the video/audio and extract quantitative descriptors used to efficiently index and search into contectually similar video segments.
Displayed and manipulated media objects dealing with signal processing problems such as resampling and aliasing to create a re-sizable image/video jigsaw puzzle
Here's a list of some of the projects that I still have to add with
detailed descriptions and demos:

For AECOM's Jorge Zamora, persistence pays off
AECOM (Los Angeles, CA) provides fully integrated professional technical
and management support services for transportation, energy and water
systems, environment, and new buildings and communities.
Jorge Zamora, EIT, is a civil engineer III with the company. Since
joining AECOM in 2000, he has been involved in almost every discipline
in civil engineering, including utilities, traffic, highway design, and
site development. Currently, he is heading up efforts to push the limits
of building information modeling (BIM).
Zamora is designing and building a BIM model for the Interstate 710
Corridor in Southern California. This $5.3 billion project for the Los
Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority is designed for
exclusive use by heavy-duty trucks. The 3D BIM models provide advanced
conflict detection with surrounding utilities and proposed structural
improvements. Construction is expected to begin in 2020.
Determination to fulfill a dream
Zamora graduated from the University of California-Irvine in 2009 with a
BSCE. In 2012, he received an MS in computer science from the University
of Southern California (Los Angeles, CA). He attended school full time
and worked thirty hours a week at AECOM.
Zamora says the family computer his father bought in the late 1990s put
him on his current path. Computer science became his number one love.
But it was his persistence that secured a job with AECOM.
"I applied for an entry-level CAD position. I emailed my resume and
waited for a call, but I didn't hear anything. I called the office and
asked to speak to the CAD manager. After two weeks, when I didn't hear
back from him, I decided to go to the office and ask to meet him. He
showed me around and gave me an impromptu interview. When I didn't hear
back again, I went to meet him once more. I brought my laptop with me
and showed him some of my programming expertise with Visual Lisp. He
said, 'You know Jorge, I wasn't going to hire you. You have the least
experience out of all the possible candidates, but I love the fact that
you're persistent, you show initiative. How soon can you start?'"
Zamora received the 2012 Orange County Engineering Council's Outstanding
Young Engineer award and a 2007 High Achiever award from AECOM.
