I’m a software architect with many years full lifecycle product engineering experience, including the development of highly scalable enterprise message processing, message distribution and web applications on the Java platform using best-of-breed open source components and tools. My primary interest is in developing platforms, tools (in particular Eclipse-based tools), frameworks and APIs to speed application and integration development. I’m currently a Principal Engineer with Workday’s integration division (formerly Cape Clear Software). I live in Dublin, Ireland.
