25 years architectural and development experience, realizing great software on a variety of platforms and within a variety of disciplines.I have had many years experience working with a variety of software development projects over a number of disiplines, including desktop, network and web based, web services, both SOAP and REST flavors (and indeed, many large SOA based systems in general). Major successes over the last few years have included several large scale SOA based systems, including global stock trading and messaging systems for companies such as Reuters, Citibank etc. Another recent win was a very large (> 20 million per day) email system for Comcast, one of the largest, if not the largest (I am unsure), cable / media companies in the US. Several of such projects involved building custom components from the ground up.) and I have strong knowledge of most common IP based protocols such as SMTP, HTTP etc. I have extensive experience with the Android OS over the last 4 years
