Computer programming and software development services

let’s BUILD a product together

I help my clients conceptualize, architect, design, develop, ship, and support successful products, ranging in size from the very small to the very large, on the internet of interesting things: embedded, real-time, distributed, low level, high performance, concurrent, parallel, asynchronous, devices, micro-controllers, software, firmware, close to bare metal.

I’M ALL ABOUT THE BIG PICTURE AND THE SMALL DETAILS
