About Patrick J. Weber

STRENGTHS and ACCOMPLISHMENTS:Passion for leading customer satisfying software development from concept through architecture, incremental development and commercialization-Redeemed our company\'s reputation with a large prospect when given the responsibility for managing the relationship with them and their P.o.C. by listening to their issues and giving them straight answers in language they could understand. Within two week we had their trust and they went on to accept the P.o.C. and become one of our most significant customers. According to our CTO: “Our support became a company strength once you took the management role on.“Restored department\'s ability to build in a timely manner saving engineers\' time by creating the proper division of labor, tools, and knowledge base for a non-technical build group.Accelerated release times by helping two disparate developer groups on different continents function together by designing, and helping each group feel ownership of, a token passing process to manage code base sharing.Averted a disastrous change of course of a project by calming high emotions with a logical, meticulous evaluation of a critical modeling tool.Exponentially increased revenue by securing a significant (thousands of servers) client. Our CTO: “Your approach and solid engineering expertise were absolutely instrumental in securing our first large customer. Without your respect for the customer, attention to detail, and quick, exacting development efforts, we never would have made it.”Saved hundreds of engineering man hours by proving that through a redesign of our big data store, which engineering was ready to abandon, it could indeed satisfy our needs.Improved customer and inter-department relations by designing and implementing an abstracted data source mechanism making application writers\' code more reusable, and their time more profitable.
