Long-standing software and systems architect, dedicated to delivering technology solutions to high value, important problems, ranging from IoT to large-scale distributed processing. Strong believer that technology must solve real problems, not those imagined by designers. We must constantly learn, objectively evaluate new ideas and processes, and share that knowledge so that every new design we create is better than the previous. Our limits should be physics and mathematics, not a lack of imagination. Extensive background in the theory and practice of IoT, blockchain, operating systems, network stacks, programming languages, compilers, databases, distributed processing, and applications that make use of these.
