CTO, Architect, Project Manager or Developer
I understand the complexities and nuances of the Mobile Enterprise and can help you manage what lies on the horizon.
Hailing from the mountainous PNW (Pacific North West), my “trailhead” started, way-back, when I combined field science with DIY Z80 computers and genetic algorithms. Professionally, I continued with process engineering in manufacturing and then moved to mainstream information technology.
My roles as a manufacturing project manager traversed staff, line and consulting positions. I then revisited an old track as a software development “sherpa” and advanced on to lead ascents into the “clouds”. Survival at “altitude” (creating enterprise software) necessitated the Lean project management tools of my earlier treks; think Agile without the attitude.
I can plan a first ascent, pick up a rope and lead, survive a storm and get everyone home with plenty of “reserves” for the next challenge. We will make a great team.
