Matthew Smith’s Experience

• Consultant/Developer

  Smiffytech

  (Information Technology and Services industry)

  February 2001 — Present (8 years 11 months)

  My core business is the development of accessible web applications running under Linux/Solaris/BSD environments using Perl and MySQL. PHP development also an option if this is a specific client requirement and other database backends such as Oracle and PostgreSQL may also be considered.
  
  I can develop either complete systems (front and back ends) or work with web developers to provided back-end solutions whilst they attend to style/presentation.
  
  In addition to development services, my experience across a variety of technology/engineering sectors allows me to provide consultancy services for a diverse range of technology-related projects, not just IT.
