I am a Generalist Software Developer.

Right now I work at VMware Pivotal Labs, which is what happened when Pivotal was purchased by VMware sometime in 2019. I do software development, specializing in architecture and process improvement, and writing distributed applications in the cloud, primarily in Kotlin and Java. I also work in the Education group, including developing and delivering courses on software architecture and development (e.g. the Master Class for Application Architects)

Previously I worked at ThoughtWorks.  It's a great place to work, with the caveat: As a North America employee, get ready to Travel. All. The. Time.

I worked at Rally Software for a good while.  Rally is now Broadcom, and not long before that it was CA.

Before that was a very long time ago, so I'll leave you to my resume to figure it out.

More Tidbits:

• Stickler about things that matter.  Like: code quality; testing; monitoring; and accountability.
• At the moment I'm strongest in distributed systems running in the JVM, particularly the parts built using Spring, Java, Kotlin, Clojure, Elm, or React.js; and deployed to somewhere in the cloud.
• I'm a developer, adept at many Ops-y things, most comfortable in a UNIX-y environment, deploying to somewhere in the cloud which requires minimal DevOps. If I can't get something to production in a few minutes ... then I'm slightly unhappy.

If you asked me what really interests me, though, you'd get some sort of an answer like:

• Things that deal with unstructured text.
• Computing with numbers. Preferably lots of them.
• Visualizing and presenting information.
• Organizing things (either automatically, or not).

Human Languages fascinate me. As an exercise in combining my interests in collecting/organizing and languages, I've made a site showcasing my collection of polyglot literature
