Highly skilled in leadership, strategy, software design & development, business analysis and product management.For the past year I've been working on a public blockchain startup optimized for micro payments. The software is built upon the Ethereum code base and is focused on high transaction throughput. New features developed include:A new consensus algorithm which uses network timestamps to achieve deterministic block acceptance in as little as 2 block periodsA "fee" based approach to transfers allowing wallets to transact with ERC20 tokens using the underlying token as payment for the transaction fee (no need to hold multiple currencies when transacting with an ERC20 token).Recent software interests include Bitcoin, Ethereum, smart contracts and emerging technologies built on top of block chains.Well versed in high volume MOM applications requiring both reliable and unreliable messaging.Specialties: * Leadership & Strategy* Technical Architecture* Software Development* Ethereum (Geth)* Distributed systems using Java, Go, C/C++* Web based UIs (Javascript, CSS)* RDBMS (Oracle, MySQL, Mongo, MS SQL Server)* Distributed caching (Hazelcast)* Application servers (Tomcat and Jetty)* Web Services / SOA (SOAP / WSSE and REST)* Project Management
