After more than five years working in the IBM Hursley Software Lab, I’ve decided that it’s time to move on. I’ve enjoyed my time in Hursley greatly and learned a lot, but in order to further grow my career, I’ve decided to leave the connectivity middleware space. I’ve worked with a lot of talented developers and architects in Hursley and around the globe on a variety of interesting projects and products, and I hope I cross paths with many of them in the future, and wish them all the best.
So what does the future hold? Well, a move away from a software product vendor to a company which uses technology and software in support of (and to drive) its business. Also a move from the leafy Hampshire countryside to Canary Wharf. On a date TBC in the not too distant future, I’ll start work as a software engineer at Morgan Stanley.
I’m really excited and looking forward to working with a new team on new challenges and learning a lot more about the finance industry.
Woop woop – exciting times ahead. All the best.
David, sorry to hear that! We are losing a talented guy! Have a good time amongst the skyscrapers, and stay in touch.
Cheers,
Andrew.
