Summary

I am an experienced software engineer/team leader/product owner/manager/entrepreneur with an excellent knowledge of designing and delivering high performance robust ICT systems in (heavy) transactional and business Intelligence environments.

I have an excellent cross section of general skills, covering both 'hard' areas such as coding, architecture, system administration, reverse engineering and 'soft' areas such as team leading, project/program management, business development and general management. I have a good ability to keep a large number of tasks on the go simultaneously, and am entirely happy working in high-responsibility environments.

I have in depth (technical) expertise in operating systems, real-time systems, (non) relational databases. client/server systems, networking, service oriented architectures, networking, cloud computing, business intelligence, parsing, ICT security and programming. I believe in developing maintainable, fault tolerant and scalable systems, am excellent under pressure, quite happy to deal with crises and confident of being able to deliver.

In my career I have developed commercial ICT products e.g. application development frameworks (C-one), industrial (embedded) systems (Rotterdam harbour security), OLTP systems (mortgaging, marketing, transportation, travel), schedulers (C-batch, TaskServer), source code analysis tools (Omnext), algorithmic trading systems (Joe) and enterprise integration platforms (Datarotonde).

With more than 30 years of experience in systems development I believe I know how sustainable, robust, performing and maintainable systems should be build.

With more than 20 years of experience in business development I know what is needed to launch and to make software products successfull.
