Alan Howard’s Expertise Hey hey! 👋 I got interested in computers and programming at a pretty early age but actually started my career working with avionics in the RNZAF. For the first five years I trained on-and-off while completing an NZCE and then spent three years working on A-4K Skyhawk and Aermacchi MB-339C pilot's display and weapons aiming systems. No, I didn't get to fly in a jet. After leaving the air force I travelled for a bit and then completed a degree in Information Sciences. Since then I've held a number of software-development & IT roles, as both an employee and consultant/contractor. I love the breadth, autonomy, and variety of working in small businesses and sole-charge positions, but have also enjoyed growing and leading technology teams in more-established companies. I tend to go where there are good people trying to solve interesting problems, and have been pretty lucky in this regard. Most recently I've been operating as a CTO/CIO, technology manager, SLT member, and advisory board member. I tend to be quite analytical and enjoy bringing an engineering mindset to business processes and conversations, and like to stay as hands-on as possible without crowding people. I try not to take myself too seriously. In my latest role I've co-founded Voyce, a SaaS platform that helps small businesses extract insights and plan features based on their customers' feedback. I've seen any number of companies either lose sight of how important it is to always be talking to their customers, or they struggle to come up with a reliable process for making sense of what their customers are telling them. Hopefully we can help to change that. When not growing social channels, contributing to technology and product conversations, documenting features, and talking to users and customers I like to write code in Python and Processing, enjoy woodworking and DIY, and later this year plan to make a Raspberry Pi-based benchtop arcade machine with my two daughters. ~~~ Please note that I tend not to accept connection requests unless I know you or we've worked together, or it's obvious how we can collaborate. It's not you...it's me.
