I started working for Framehawk in Dec 2012, where my duties ranged from front-end UI design and implementation to optimizing network data transfer and pretty much everything in between. I worked with many programming languages on a regular basis (Objective C, C++, Java, Python...), and in many different development environments and operating systems.In January 2014 Framehawk was purchased by Citrix, and I was hired by Citrix as part of the acquisition. Once the acquisition was complete, I worked directly with an existing engineering team to integrate the Framehawk technology into the Citrix infrastructure.
