Summary
I am a Software Engineer with around 29 years in the space. I started off working with a financial software development house and was associated with the Architecture and Emerging Technologies division of a large financial institution. I have subsequently worked with one of the largest Telcos where amongst many other activities, I was an early adopter of using internet technologies for web based application development, participated in the architecture definition for perhaps the first application in the company to be built using Java and CORBA, was nominated to be a panelist at a software symposium to talk about Java and also was appointed to be a member of the corporate wide groups for Object Orientation Realization, Java, CORBA and middleware. In the last 20 years an independent Software Architecture and Design Consultant, I have worked on providing solutions to a number of diverse problems including building interactive educational software for pre teen children, building administration suites for workflow authoring applications, creating applications that compute electromagnetic wave signal strengths, and building frameworks and applications which process in excess of a million financial transactions per hour. Finally, I have been involved in not just the development, but operations, operations management and operation automation of a cloud based service for many years. Along the way I have switched across a number of roles including those of a developer, chief architect, chief technology officer and head of product development. I continue to be passionate about programming and design and all that comes under the umbrella of software engineering. I have since worked on helping build supply chain finance services and currently also working on guiding, building out and operating various GST services capabilities including running the Vayana GSP. I did my post graduation from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, and have been involved in Senior Management positions and have managed team sizes in excess of 120 persons Specialties: Software Architecture, Technology Research, OO Modeling and Design, Programming
