You have reached the front page for Cryptic Squid Limited, a company I founded in early 2008 to manage my consultancy and other commercial activities. You can find more information on current and past projects, contact details and my C.V. by clicking on the tabs below the site logo.

I am available for contract based work (short to medium term) in the South East of England, in particular the area around Cambridge. I can provide expert advice and consultancy on high level software architecture as well as acting as an experienced senior developer or team leader for your software team.
