Nick Rozanski

I am the functional architect for a front-office IT department in a major British bank. I have oversight of the systems landscape for the whole department and also provide architectural guidance and support for key systems and projects. I produce some of the department's architecture descriptions myself, which requires me to create all types of views and address concerns in almost every perspective described in the book.

I have worked in IT since 1980 for several large and small systems integrators, including Logica, Capgemini, and Sybase. I have taken senior roles on a wide range of programs for clients in finance, retail, manufacturing, and government. My technology background includes enterprise application integration, package implementation, relational database, data replication, and object-oriented software development. I am also an experienced technical instructor and certified internal project auditor.

I was educated at the Universities of Cambridge and Manchester, United Kingdom.
