Dave Walker

OpenEdge / Progress Developer

Age : 44

Just a little bit about me…

I am currently Dev/Manager with Pace IT (UK) and have previously worked with Advanced on OE products like OpenPeople & OpenAccounts from as far back as 1995!

With 23+ years experience as a developer I’ve been involved through the full gambit of the software development life cycle, from systems design through to customer training, and everything in between.

I enjoy making things work!  Debugging and problem solving are probably my favourite bits, but I also do love contact with customers.  I’m pretty comfortable with both in-house team communication and front line customer facing support.

• Progress OpenEdge V6-11
• ADM1
• ADM2
• Smart Objects
• WebSpeed
• AppServer
• Windows
• Unix / Linux
• SQL Server
• GUI

Among the bits and bobs of non Progress/OpenEdge experience:

• Laravel Framework
• API development
• Applications in the Cloud (Digital Ocean / Amazon AWS)
• Vagrant
• Docker
• WordPress / WooCommerce /
• WordPress plugin development
• MySQL
