Db2 Sys Prog TEch lead at Natwest since 2003 and contractor there from 1994 to 2003. Interested in all things Db2, analytics, Splunk, REST API's and much more
Ian is a Product Management Director at Precisely where he is responsible for the Ironstream® line of products. Splunk? Yep. Been there, done that…got the Splunk T’s and hoodies: 6 years and counting of creating searches, dashboards, apps, add-ons, modules, data models., and speaking at .conf. Ian has had, and is still having, an interesting IT career. Starting back in the late 80’s with COBOL he has never looked back and is always stretching the envelope. He has been through the full software development lifecycle and experience. From, powering on/off mainframes with 8” floppy disks to working with many systems/platforms and languages: REXX, assembler, C/++/#, Smalltalk, Pascal, VB, Java, Swift, today’s modern web technologies and frameworks like Angular and React …and lots of other things in between. His experience includes development (obvs!), architecture and implementation of mission-critical, customer-facing systems and global rollouts. When not running a trail or riding miles on his road bike, Ian can be found at his laptop writing the script for his next webcast, article or formulating big plans for Ironstream.
