My prior job suddenly went into receivership two weeks ago so I'm available immediately. Resume etc to come.
20+ years in development and engineering leadership. The last 6 or so focused on the back end of card payment processing from both the issuing and acquiring sides. My strengths are in simple, correct, scalable, and reliable systems.
Past work includes leading teams, hiring and mentoring, building mobile apps, C / C++ game development, database optimisation, and a whole lot of web dev.
