Top SchoolRick Davin is a Principal IT Developer with nine years of focused experience in PI System integrations and developer enablement, currently based in Salem, Oregon. He leads technical initiatives that turn PI and AF capabilities into practical, production-ready solutions, pairing solutions-architect thinking with hands-on development.
