David Salgado

I'm a developer, technical architect and devops engineer based in London (for now).

I started working as a developer over 20 years ago, and since then I've:

• Designed and built high-performance messaging applications (I built the first systems in the world to enable a TV audience to vote via text message - think Big Brother, X-Factor, etc.)
• Worked as a developer, tech. lead, technical architect and devops engineer
• Worked for companies from 4-person startups to multinationals and the UK civil service
• Launched my own startup, a mobile advertising network, which ran successfully for 10 years
• Worked as Head of Operations for a blockchain startup

I've got a lot of full-stack technical skills. Basically, I can build and run whatever system is required. I'm better at back-end than front-end work - I'm a bit weak on the design side - but I can get the job done. I'm also good at business strategy, and communicating technical concepts to business people, and vice versa.

Right now I'm looking for my next project. I don't know what that's going to be yet - I've got lots of ideas, but not one that I'm really burning to bring to life.

I'd like to find a good co-founder with complementary skills to mine. Maybe someone with good marketing and sales skills. If that's you, please get in touch.
