Bruce Taylor’s Summary

Very strong Java server expert likes to work in small, dynamic companies building very cool applications. Expects to work hard, to function alone and as part of a team, to take and give direction, and to address changing requirements with grace and imagination. Believes that all technical leaders should spend at least half their time coding, testing, and debugging. Mentors and coaches other engineers and team leaders in software best practices. Working in an agile development environment with other smart, experienced engineers would be a huge incentive.

Works mostly in the far back end of enterprise-scale Java applications: database access, business logic, infrastructure, APIs, and all the rest. Especially talented with heavily multi-threaded or multi-processing applications, and on designing systems for performance, reliability, and maintainability.
