Tehnical Architect for Global Petroleum Industry
Dallas but hoping Houston soon

Quality Data Management, Integration, Movement, and Accessibility from multidisciplinary data repositories in structured and non-structured formats to promote time critical business workflow business decisions in Oil and Gas. Event driven architectures supporting data object orientation and parallel task pools for resiliency, memory hierarchy streaming/buffering, optimal performance on many core heterogeneous hardware and software infrastructure stacks. Intelligent resource scheduling that learns processing characteristics and achieves ultimate goal for customer: efficiency, throughput, performance, cost, reliability, security, etc.
