I'm currently a freelance consultant (through my company, White Dog), working with clients on desktop interoperability projects. I'm also a maintainer of the FINOS FDC3 project (an open source standard for interoperability between desktop applications), consultant CTO at eBit Labs (data & analytics for digital assets), and an advisor to fintech firms. Until 2020 I worked at NatWest Markets, where I led strategy for desktop interoperability and front office UI engineering.
I've worked in investment banking technology for over 15 years, leading teams and strategy. I've been writing code in various languages since I was 10: I've worked extensively with PHP, Perl, Java, C# and Go. I now primarily work with TypeScript (mostly using Deno). I'm (slowly) learning Rust.
I'm always keen to hear about potential projects. If you'd like to get in touch, please drop me an email at matt@whitedog.io.
