at the end. The synopsis at the start you could push a few topical ones into. I'd be tempted to to indicate how long I'd been using them too.
Don't go mad with that years will do.

That will bring your career history on to the first page (at least your most recent employment).
Don't know whether styles differ in the US, but I'd want some achievements in there. Like enhances app written in this to do this increasing revenue decsreasing cost, improving efficiency etc. Put it how you like, get a business reason for it in there though.
Do get your career history up close and personal though, HR types will not go to the trouble of finding it.
