Simon Timms is a Principal Software Engineer at Inventive Works, LLC. He possess expertise in software engineering, subversion, agile methodologies, c#, perforce and 29 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Simon is a ridiculously productive engineer tackling literally any problem that was thrown at him. Whether it's finding undocumented (and massively unexpected) side effects in .NET that contradict best practices (which even made Microsoft perform a mea culpa) or remotely debugging USB drivers on a custom hardware platform that controlled laser wielding robots from 3 thousand miles away, Simon always delivered. This ingenuity and tenacity coupled with his patience and thoughtfulness should instantly put him at the top of any "we need to hire this person" lists." and "Simon sets his sights on features and defects with resounding confidence and executes them quickly, improving the code base as he goes. I have learned something in nearly every interaction with him, from his approach to triaging production issues, to design and testing and more. He spends his time in a relentless pursuit of making it easier to do his job, which puts the whole team in the enviable position of having an easier job to do. His broad and deep experience in very complex systems has given him a competence that is well beyond his years. He is a natural leader, an inquisitive student of computer programming and continually provides comic relief to tense (and sometimes not so tense) situations. I hope to work with Simon on many more projects down the road and would recommend him on nearly any technology project."
