Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGlen Kleidon is a pragmatic software engineer based in Melbourne with over three decades of hands-on programming experience and nine years in formal industry roles, specializing in object-oriented systems across Delphi, C#, JavaScript/Node.js. He excels at modernizing legacy applications—migrating Delphi client-server suites to REST APIs and reimplementing tools in contemporary languages—while bridging relational (MSSQL, PostgreSQL) and multivalue (D3/PICK) databases. Comfortable across front-end frameworks like Vue and Aurelia and both SOAP and REST web services, he combines deep legacy knowledge with current cloud-hosted deployment patterns. Glen has led technical stabilization and cross-border integration efforts for large financial and healthcare systems, mentoring teams and instituting release processes using Jira, Bamboo and Bitbucket. Despite a long career, he stays intellectually curious—learning something new nearly every day—and maintains an electronics engineering practice at Galkam that keeps his hardware and software skills tightly coupled.
