Bio
Mark Hajdukiewicz
Tim is a likeable and effective manager. He is able to communicate the goals of higher managent, presenting them as achiveable objectives and motivating the whole team.
Matthew Reynolds
I have worked for Tim in system engineering/architecture roles in Symbian and Ericsson, and in both cases it was very enjoyable and instructive experience. Tim is technically very competent, but combines this with a intuitive management style where he can understand and relate to the people working for him, and provide the conditions for them to flourish. He is very good at finding pragmatic solutions to difficult technical and managerial problems, and taught me a great deal in the years I worked with him.

Head of System Architects/ deputy VP

2003 - Jan 2007
I joined Symbian to introduce System Management techniques. The main tasks were to build/manage a team and to put in place infrastructures, techniques and processes to handle an increasingly complex O.S. as well as form strategy, manage budget and manage projects. The change management task was to introduce system thinking e.g. a forum (Design Authority) to discuss ‘quick’ studies to look at proposed design against a ‘design base’ (Architectural Model of the System) and requirements (roadmaps) long before coding commenced; in order to enhance system qualities and system performance and to eliminate waste (maintenance and re-work costs) whilst promoting flexibility (agility) within the individual technology areas, a balance to technically manage a complex system.
