I am a software developer with a broad range of technical and business experience across a number of roles throughout the full development life-cycle. My main strength is that I am an adaptable, versatile generalist with good communication and team-working skills.

My strongest technical skills are Sybase (7 years), Uniface (7 years), C++ (2 years), C (3 years), Rdb (7 years). Many of my technical skills have had to be learned on the job, under pressure to deliver, backed up by later, more formal training.

Tasks I have performed include user requirements analysis, system and program design, programming, system and integration testing, user support, maintenance programming, and team leading.
