My professional career has been driven by a passion for software technology. Most career choices have been made based on the desire to work with cutting-edge technology keeping up with the latest developments in the areas of Internet, Distributed Environments and Multimedia. I prefer to work with small teams of skilled engineers. I have learned to bring projects from the idea stage to a finished product and enjoy the process of turning a vague idea into a concrete technology implementation using the available resources. I am a strong proponent of the agile philosophy of incremental development by finding the most effective path to deliver business value as early as possible. • Creative thinker• Fast learner for new technologies and domains• Capable of motivating a small team for any technology topic• System level Object Oriented design• Aware of most cutting-edge developments• Performance optimizationI am working on finding a good symbiosis between javascript and java. We are finally seeing responsive and intuitive user interfaces on the web. The next challenge will be in unlocking the data silos and make data and information to be transparent and 'fluid'. I believe in software that has a clear purpose and does one thing really well without over-engineering and losing perpective of the problems a project tries to solve.Specialties: Java, GWT, Media & Content management, Facet navigation, NoSQL databases, Agile development processes
