Jim Hersel

Director of Software Engineering @ Charter Communications

About

Principal Software Engineer and Sr. Software Manager with years of development and management experience. Business experience with Video Content Delivery, Telecommunications, HealthCare, Wholesale Distribution, Accounting and Retail. I've worked with a wide variety of teams, technical and users, to communicate solutions that are deliverable and provide the best solutions. After designing these solutions I love to dig into the code, solving problems that always come up, and push to the best solution. This is what gives me the greatest satisfaction in my work. When a development team I'm either managing or developing with, delivers a final product and users actually say they enjoy working with it because it's easy to use, performant and makes their life better, I've done my job. Specialities include communication, full stack development, java services and web services and database schema design and implementation.
