About me
My name is Lajos Moczar. I am a senior technologist who provides the CTO-level services on a consultant basis, usually in an advisory or interim capacity. I support existing CTOs and provide CTO services for clients who don't have one yet.
Why me?

There are four things that make what I do unique:

My approach:I have a knack for modelling complex systems and processes in a way that takes into account all technical, business and operational aspects, allowing me to design pragmatic, long-lasting solutions.

My experience:I have 35+ years of experience in every area of IT; I've used hundreds of technologies, products, and technical paradigms. I've done everything from pxe-booting microsystems to building global cloud infrastructures.

My expertise:I'm a 10x expert in a number of specific areas of IT: cloud, IT strategy, systems & DevOps engineering, enterprise development, solution / enterprise architecture, IT management, Big Data and data-based systems in general.

My philosophy:Technology is fundamentally about engineering solid solutions that support business objectives. If your IT isn't doing that, then they are just wasting your time and money.
