This is the web page of Joe Mistachkin.

I am currently seeking new opportunities as a full-time Software Engineer.

I have over 25 years of experience as a professional software engineer and a proven track record of getting complicated, difficult things done.

I meet or exceed the typical requirements for the Principal Software Engineer level.

I will make your project successful throughout its entire lifecycle.

I am willing to talk with anyone about possible opportunities as long as they are serious, reasonable, courteous, and timely.

I firmly believe in and adhere to the ACM Software Engineering Code of Ethics.

Here is a partial list of my interests and/or expertise: automation, cryptography, databases, developer tools & SDKs, distributed systems, (Internet) security, public key infrastructure, runtimes, sandboxing, scripting languages, testing, and virtual machines.

Here is a short list of keywords for the search engines: Tcl/Tk, Eagle, SQLite, System.Data.SQLite, Fossil SCM, Comdb2

About Me

I have a strong preference for information reuse; therefore, instead of duplicating "profile" content here, please refer to my page on the official Tcl/Tk wiki.

I firmly believe in open source and have been deeply involved in various communitities for most of my career.

Here are a couple of my current "side projects":

Eagle: Secure Software Automation
 
Harpy: Secure Software Provisioning
 
SQLite Encryption Extension for System.Data.SQLite
 
Enterprise Key Management plugin for System.Data.SQLite
