Cogneto

Credentials?

• I have a very extensive background in the areas of Internet security, privacy technologies, and high performance computing – as well as a very unique and broad business background which lets me tie these things into the world of commerce and finance.
• I have over a decade’s worth of solid, full life-cycle software development and management experience.
• I designed and built a large-scale super computing facility in the UK for research, and assisted biologists in augmenting wet lab work with massively parallel computing.
• I was a founder of Group Telecom’s PKI group where I touched almost all aspects of the business from prototyping to managing development and growing the sales side through business development. I designed and oversaw the construction of a high security, military grade PKI data vault.  At GT, I also coordinated and assisted with a national security audit  – a responsibility that encompassed over 2,000 systems, 1,000 networks and three autonomous routing domains across sixteen cities.

Career highlight?

Building a world-class super computing facility then abusing it ruthlessly to do computational biology.
