Larry Jones Email & Phone Number

Larry Jones possesses expertise in c#, software engineering, software development, .net, uml and 44 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I've worked closely with Larry twice in my career - both times as his direct line manager - at Reveal Energy Services and Sigma Cubed. In each case Larry was hired to fill a specific technical need related to software design and in both cases he immediately exceeded all expectations with his thoughtfulness and attention to detail. At Sigma3 he was asked to overhaul the runtime scripting environment (Python) for a complex research seismic processing code (reverse time migration / full waveform inversion) and make it into something that could be production ready at scale. I frankly expected him to triage and then lead a team of contract developers to implement. Rather, he methodically sat with the SMEs to understand the code, its origins, and the needs of the users - then single-handedly built a test suite upon that analysis which reflected these requirements, and finally refactored and augmented the code and its DSL until it passed all tests. The result? A flawless environment that worked precisely as needed. At Reveal, I hired Larry to help architect and refine another scripting environment in MATLAB, which rapidly turned into a full-blown engineering application called Orchid which was written in C# with a Python API (which he wrote from scratch). I can honestly say that Orchid would not have been possible without Larry's thoughtful debates on design and his relentless advocacy of unit and functional testing. 10 years ago before we met I was skeptical of the benefits of TDD. Today I am a complete convert. I have known Larry for 12 years now, and I am a *far* better engineer and engineering leader for it. For my part, this is the highest recommendation I can give." and "Twice in my career I have been fortunate to work with Larry Jones; first at Cap Gemini, and then again at Schlumberger. Larry is an innovative thought leader that finds straightforward solutions to complex issues; never losing sight of the driving business goal. Through mentoring and sharing of his own time and knowledge, Larry improves the capabilities of those around him. No matter the technology challenge ahead, Larry is the one guy I would call to solve it."
