Hamish is the CTO of SilverStripe, a company based in New Zealand that creates, amongst other things, the open source PHP Framework and CMS also called SilverStripe. With offices in three countries, and having worked with (amongst others) large banks and government agencies in New Zealand, SilverStripe successfully bridges the gap between
commercial realities and a dedication to an open source ethos. A multi-disciplinarian with nearly two decades of experience, Hamish is at home coding backend PHP, designing CSS layouts, optimising SQL statements, or load-hardening Debian. He thinks JavaScript is a near-perfect language, the web is our saviour from the perils of lock-in, and open source will inevitably triumph.
