Trifork A/S

Trifork A/S is a small software house who do consultancy work as well as full time projects for our customers. We focus on highly complex projects primarily in the healthcare and financial sector, and we often use new and upcoming technologies like .NET 3.0 and Ruby (before it went mainstream). Primary development languages are Java and C#, and the company is well known for hosting the JAOO conference, for its P4 profiler and T4 application server, and for using and teaching Scrum.

January 2009 and forward : I agreed to do some analysis and initial development on a new project, of which I cannot disclose anything. But it involves OpenGL and WebKit. Both WebKit and the software I am developing is written in C++, and that gave me a rare chance to brush up on a language I haven’t touched for some years; I have a kind of love/hate relationship with that language. Besides, I also got the chance to do some research into WebKit – which is a peculiar, and sometimes frustrating, experience since nothing is documented.
August 2007 – January 2009 : I have been relocated to another project in the financial sector as a developer. This project is also for an external customer. Besides assisting their own development team with the Scrum process, architecture and technological advices, we also function as regular developers alongside their own team.
April 2007 – July 2007 : I worked on a project we are developing for the Danish Mortgage Deed Exchange.

Tungsten Solutions

This was my own “company”, and i had it for 8 months alongside my work at Kamstrup A/S. During that time i made small development projects for a few companies in the United States, as well as a database design project for Velfac A/S – a large danish company who designs and manufactures advanced window systems.

The system is written in Java (J2SE and J2EE) on top of Oracle Healthcare Transaction Base. Oracle cooperated closely with us during the development of this. You can read about CSC Clinical Suite here. It is in danish but some articles are in english too.
May 2001 – May 2003 : system developer and responsible for maintenance and development of a client written in C++. The client uses a mainframe as a backend server.
June 2002 – February 2003 : while working on the aforementioned client i worked with a core group with the task of rewriting the same client in C#. The .NET framework was just released and the new client was meant to replace the old one written in C++.
January 2000 – April 2001 : worked as a developer on an electronic patient record system, with core resposibilities mainly in the medication module and the frameworks. This project gave me extensive knowledge of SQL servers.
