Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Dönszelmann is a seasoned Java Developer and Architect with 20 years of experience designing and building complex systems, often bridging Java with native C and C++ components. Based in Geneva and long affiliated with CERN, he excels in build and release engineering using Maven, Hudson and contributes to SCM workflows across Subversion, Mercurial and Git. He authored and extended native build tooling—most notably contributing compiler and JNI support to the maven-nar plugin—enabling cross-platform native integration for scientific and enterprise builds. His background in electrical engineering and long roster of research and industry roles (Stanford, Riscure, Sonatype) give him a pragmatic systems-level perspective on performance, portability and maintainability. Not obviously, he blends deep low-level toolchain knowledge with high-level Java architecture, making him effective at solving thorny integration and build problems that block delivery.
