Brisbane's Independent .NET Consultant

Maybe I can help your team, your business, or someone you know?

Currently, I'm free to fulfill any short term consulting needs you might have:

  • Your software architecture needs a review?
  • Your software strategy is falling apart? Maybe you never had one?
  • Development practices need to be refreshed?
  • Feel you're not using the tools you should? Sick of using a screw driver to hammer in nails?
  • Customers and developers just not listening to each other?
  • Need to write a lot of code, and not much time to do it?
  • Need help with a sluggish database?
  • Has your team turned Toxic?
  • Bug count heading north instead of south?
  • Got nasty technical issues that need some serious brain time?
  • Projects never seem to ship?
  • Or (last resort) just need a humour coach?

My resume is online. Contact me by email to LeonBambrick@gmail.com

Wow, what happened at Advantech?

I googled it using this search:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Advantech+Software%2C+Brisbane+&btnG=Google+Search

and your resume is the #2 hit after their site. Quite impressive.

Have fun in whatever the new gig is.

John

@John -- nothing bad. They're a great bunch of people, and I still recommend them. I've just decided to go independent for now.

Yo Leon -- have you read justice gray's article?

You couldn've told him about that article BEFORE he quit, Don2! Just kidding. I'm sure that Leon is typing his blog over the din of Brisbane's IT industry trying to beat down his door.

Came across this in your blog, passed the details on to my boss as I like your style and work on TimeSnapper, as well as the fact that Mr Hanselmann has interviewed you, which means you must be doing a lot right!

p.s Good luck going indie

All viewpoints welcome. But the right to delete any post for any reason is reserved. Don't make me do it. Aim for constructiveness. Comments may be republished, emailed to your loved ones or printed and used as toilet paper. Also, I get particularly nasty on comment spam. It's not worth even trying to post comment spam here -- your html is escaped, and your links are given a rel='nofollow'. By attempting to post a comment, you understand that if the comment is considered spam, at my absolute discretion, your IP address may be used as the target of a prolonged distributed denial of service attack. Your electricity might suddenly stop working. Your car tyres will go mysteriously flat. You will suffer permanent hairloss. Your dreams will be filled with terrifying monsters. And in any case I reserve the right to record and publish your IP address.

 

TimeSnapper is a life analysis system that stores and plays-back your computer use. It makes timesheet recording a breeze, helps you recover lost work and shows you how to sharpen your act.
