Bio
Martin Timms
Nick Barker helped in a major way to take Nomad Digital from a start-up idea to a full embedded multi-million pound product solution working on the Linux platform, router software design and mobile network router implementation. This design is now used on trains throughout the world as a WiFi and mobile internet solution. As a result, Nick has a very in depth knowledge of the Linux kernel, C programming language and mobile network technology. Nick did much work in the area of technical requirements capture and system level architectural design, working with customers and design teams to deliver innovative solutions. Nick also showed an aptitude for giving technical training courses to both engineering and project staff. Nick also provided major technical contributions to Nomad's intellectual property and resulting net worth. I would recommend Nick as the ideal knowledgeable multi-skilled innovative engineer.
