Welcome!  My name is Lawrence J. Sylvain. I'm a senior software engineer with over 36 years of experience.  That's my cat Toonces on the stamp above :).  My most current resume can be downloaded by clicking one of the above links.  It is available in Adobe PDF, Microsoft Word, Rich Text, Open Office and plain text formats.   The Adobe format provides the best print quality should you want to pass a hard-copy through the office mill.  I don't spend a lot of time working on this page - mainly because I'm more occupied with delivering solutions for my customers.

Over the years I've developed a lot of solutions using OpenSource and cloud technologies such as containers and Kubernetes.

I can work in developer, mentor, lead and architect roles, and I frequently wear all of those hats.  I know how to take a project from conception to delivery, sustainment and enhancement.  

My general strategy is to create agile and reusable cross-platform frameworks that can be leveraged to deliver integrated solutions that require minimum cost to support and enhance.  I've migrated many legacy systems to modern technologies and have designed and delivered adapters to integrate legacy systems with modern solutions.  I started on the ground floor as the industry started the transition to service-oriented technologies years ago and enjoy the seemingly unlimited opportunities of cloud technologies.

I've been serving as a software engineer in cloud technologies at Zeta Associates since January, 2015.

I have a TS/SCI clearance.

Thanks again for visting! I leave you with my favorite blessing. It is my favorite because it was taught by God himself to Moses:
