Mihai Coman’s Summary
Experience
Close to 10 years of real world, hands on experience designing & developing a wide array of software solutions ranging from real-time embedded systems & Windows kernel drivers to Internet centric ERP, CMS & distributed enterprise systems.
I never believed in catching/keeping up with tehnology & IT trends - they're too slow; there's a long track of way ahead of their time solutions I worked on to prove this.
While it may come as a complete surprise, I'm still a bit behind with web trends so no web 9.0 applications here. Buzzwords are not my thing but I can deal just fine with the technology behind them when needed to deliver real solutions to real problems.
Started H&C Consulting in late 2007. H&C's goal is to support innovators, leaders, managers and visionaries in their endeavors to succeed by helping them make intelligent decisions about online strategy, communications and brand.
Far from being a departure from my software development 'roots', H&C still provides software development services while leveraging our comprehensive web/online media know-how as part of our 'complete client experience'.

June 1999 — January 2000 (8 months)
Part of a five men 'shock' team, I designed and built a fully functional prototype for a way ahead of its time mobile (WAP) application server/framework that went the way of the dodo bird just (as fast) as the protocol itself.
However, it was a great testbed for a lot of great technologies and allowed me to score a lot of 'first times' developing from ground up the XML-based communication protocol (similar to SOAP), DSLs (domain specific languages) for workflow and UI rendering while also designing and implementing my first heavily multi-threaded, distributed and quite pluggable server architecture in C++. -
