Fix / K / KDB / Java / C / C++ /developer / Project Manager looking for employment.

Imported from previous forum

I’m in NYC. I’m looking for either a full time position or a contract or try buy. I just finished a contract for First Derivatives, as Manager, New York Office. I have also worked with K/KDB and market data systems at Lehman. I was a developer for Tibco/Reuters, solving Rendezvous issues in C++/Java for their clients. I developed Fix Order Routing Engines…for a subsidiary of La Branche…and this order routing system was in use between broker dealers and Madoff, Herzog and Knight Securities. Plus I have my Cisco CCNP/CCDP, and passed one exam towards my CCIP ( QoS). Other development contracts clients have included: SIAC\AMEX, Bankers Trust, Chase Manhattan, Jefferies & Company, ING, Merrill Lynch.

Contact me for a full resume. I have ‘good’ references. Phone is 917 270 1688. I have a valid US Passport.
