I am a software engineer, architect and technical lead who develops new software solutions and product enhancements. I take high level direction from company leadership to deliver projects, from concept through to production.I value proven techniques to create modern service oriented architectures that can be delivered on time and on budget, both in the cloud or on premise. I specialise in C#/.NET/WCF as a core development skill set to implement scalable, distributed, N-tier systems that can evolve to meet the changing needs of business.I continue to train under some of the best architects in the industry to learn best practices for creating software architectures, developing project plans and implementing those architectures. I have learned how to avoid the common pitfalls that cause software projects to fail. By applying a process where systems are designed to handle change, development and maintenance costs are greatly reduced. I can then apply planning techniques which measure and trade off time, cost and risk in order to give options that best suit the needs of the business.
