John Nichol is a Tech Lead Manager at Google. He possess expertise in multithreading, distributed systems, java, middleware, java enterprise edition and 24 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "John and I have been working together for around 9 years. He impressed me immediately with his deep knowledge of both financial business processes and solid OO design and engineering skills, and later with his attention to detail. He is one of those rare people with an ability to rapidly diagnose a problem or grasp a requirement and produce an elegant, correct solution. John proved his client management skills working on difficult projects; managing to keep the customer happy without compromising his strong focus on 'doing the right thing' architecturally. When the opportunity to join forces with him presented itself I had no hesitation in making the jump to join John and another colleague, Steve Colwill in founding PSJ Solutions. John is an outstanding asset to any venture, remaining calm under pressure, managing the minutiae without losing sight of the big picture, and bringing a wealth of business and technical experience to play. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending him."
