ABOUT LARRY REID
I am happily retired, and have no intention of making any money in the computer field. Please don\'t contact me about employment opportunities. Thanks for your consideration-I have over 40 years experience as a programmer, system analyst, and architect. Since 2010, my software development work has been mostly in Ruby and Ruby on Rails. I specialize in developing apps that solve focused business problems, minimum viable products (MVPs), and prototypes.I also maintain a number of Ruby and Rails gems, including bootstrap_form, devise-bootstrap-form, and gaapi. I\'m also strong with Bash, make, and other scripting and automation tools. I was automating operation tasks long before the term \"DevOps\" was coined.My ample work and life experience helps me integrate quickly in teams and businesses, so I produce results fast.I\'m also an experienced IT consultant and Project Manager who focuses on value for the client. While I\'ve moved on from those roles, my experience building teams and fostering collaboration permeates everything I do now.
