Dave helps large organisations use emerging technologies for innovation. He has spent the past two decades designing and building software systems that are used by several hundred million people worldwide.
Dave is interested in Agile software development and scalable microservice API architectures. He's a member of the team working on the open-source Scalatra web micro-framework, which has been used to build NetFlix, the BBC's Linked Data project, and McLaren's series data store.
He's led major development projects for Britain's National Health Service, Tesco, Pearson, Oxford University Press, Qualcomm, the University of Cambridge, Moorfields Eye Hospital, Electrolux, Microsoft, the British Heart Foundation, and Coca-Cola.
Dave approaches technology with a combination of childlike enthusiasm and grown-up cynicism. He has a keen interest in organizations and institutions, and the interplay between social structures and software.
