Robert Fischer is a proven leader with a strong background in technical leadership and pragmatic development. He is available for contracts in order to set the tone for new projects, to fill in an interim role while new leadership is sought, or to realign the tone of existing projects.
Robert's approach to technical leadership focuses on pragmatic communication: identifying the underlying needs of business and development, and finding new ways of sharing them. Once those modes of communication are established, Robert looks into the surrounding business context and identifies how to build that communication into the development process of the team. These are abstract ways of speaking, but the innately contextual and interpersonal approach to technical leadership makes it hard to be more specific.
Robert Fischer has extensive experience with the processes and technologies connected to the Agile development methodology, including scrum, test-driven development, and the FIT acceptance testing framework. He enjoys introducing Agile into new environments, and is encouraged by the consistant increase in morale and productivity. If you are considering Agile for your team, Robert can act as an Agile coach, technical support for Agile infrastructure, or as a senior developer who provides a good example for the team.
