Summary
I'm a 25+ year Silicon Valley software engineering veteran, now based in Portland working for Autodesk Construction Solutions. Previously at Tophatter, Lending Club, Yahoo, Stanford & many startups. I'm a soup to nuts software engineer and leader of developers. A generalist at heart, building and directing for early ventures is a passion. Developing solutions in many industries such as construction planning, e-commerce, financial services, social networks, mobile entertainment, security, behavioral ad targeting, online scientific journal publishing, policy reform and others gives me a rich breadth of experience to draw from. Domain knowledge: Unix Systems (Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD), Ruby (Rails, Sinatra, RSpec, JRuby, Devise, Sidekiq/Celluloid), Web Development (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, Twitter Bootstrap, Sass, Backbone), iOS (Objective-C, Objective-C++), Virtualized Computing (Heroku, Amazon Web Services), Network Programming, Node.js, Relational DBs & SQL (Postgres, MySQL), NoSQL (Mongo, Neo4j/Cypher, Redis, Lucene), C, C++ (STL), Java, Perl. Leadership style: People first. Start simple. EQ over IQ. Seeking collaboration, diversity of opinion and experiences. ENFP / ENTP. I borrow heavily from Agile, Lean and Kanban.
