I am a versatile software professional working in the industry for over 20 years. I have experience with the full software lifecycle and often work on complex systems integrating heterogeneous technology stacks into holistic solutions. Most of my experience is with open source technology stacks, although I have expertise with MFC/Windows application development and Flash development. As a freelancer, I'm looking for short term projects as a developer, architect, or process or technology consultant. I can help with high level strategy or help you debug thorny code issues. As a developer, my main areas of expertise are databases and SQL (especially PostgreSQL), modern web development (modern JavaScript, jQuery, AJAX, WebSockets, MongoDB), virtualized environments (VMWare and Google Compute Engine), low level C/C++ development, modern C++ application development (including boost and C++11), Java based backend integration (Glassfish or Tomcat J2EE, JSF), and Flash technology (AS2, AS3, Media Server, Red5). I can also do basic system administration and dev ops or work with a QA department to develop testing strategies.
