| I am an experienced solution developer with experience of the full product life cycle from initial requirements capture, through design and development to commissioning and maintenance. I have design skills in UML. I have worked in teams ranging from 1 to 50+. I am self-motivated and I am able to show initiative when required. I feel that I have good inter-personal skills and I fit well in a team environment but I am easily capable of working on my own.
