The new SNAPPS guy you already know...

QuickImage Category SNAPPS

Today, for the first time since April 2003, I have the pleasure of introducing a new member of the SNAPPS team that isn't a newborn (what DO they put in the water here?). We haven't hired in five years - not because there hasn't been business to support it, but because our business model allowed us to grow nearly 100% without additional team members. But in the past year, it became obvious that demand for our unique brand of high-end consulting and services would continue to increase. And, we felt that bringing in a low to mid-level team member would only hold us for a while. We needed more real talent.

And so without further gilding the lily and no more ado, I'm thrilled to announce that Julian Robichaux is joining SNAPPS as a Senior Developer (or whatever he wants his title to be). Julian, who you know from six years of blogging at nsftools.com, the Taking Notes Podcast, and various speaking engagements at Lotusphere, The VIEW, ILUG, and others, brings 12 years of Notes & Domino experience to SNAPPS. He has provided companies and clients with a number of "out of the box" solutions, knows all the relevant programming languages and toolkits, and has extensive experience with relational database integration.

Julian spent two days with the team in Overland Park last week (well, Troy was a disembodied head on a Skype call most of the time, but there in spirit). We compared notes - pun intended - and decided it was a very good fit. He'll work from his office in Georgia, coming up to SNAPPS offices every now and then, will be with us at Collaboration University, and you can bet he'll continue to be a feature at conferences and will continue his blog and website.

Welcome Julian to SNAPPS! We are thrilled to add your distinctiveness to our collective. Did I forget to mention that last bit?

Gravatar Image5 - Hey Julian congrats on the new job and to all at SNAPPS on your remarkable good taste Emoticon One small thing .. Julian were you constipated when that photo was taken?
Emoticon oh wait perhaps that was the "G" effect after ILUG. It's OK it goes back to it's normal colour in 2 or 3 months!

Gravatar Image6 - Rob - how could you hire someone with such a happy face and a serious, downright bad tempered chin?!
Very best congrats to all
P.

Gravatar Image7 - Congrats to you both , great combination

Gravatar Image8 - I think it's a momentous development for all concerned! I especially like the photo, that I lifted from a family group shot I took a year or so ago (which may explain why Julian looks rather uncertain of where he is) and then manipulated in Photoshop where I substituted the background and eliminated the glazed look in his eyes. (Family gatherings can be quite exhausting, as you probably know.) He has told me many stories of you all, and if you are only half as nice, brilliant, distinguished, magnanimous, benevolent, gracious, and congenial as he says you are, you're a great group and a tribute to your generation!

Gravatar Image9 - Well done Rob… and congratulations to you Julian. I enjoyed meeting you and though I don’t understand the technical aspects, I’m sure you’ll be an asset to SNAPPS
