Tom Hannum

Senior Engineer, Infrastructure

Expert in server and network infrastructure for finance and healthcare; built systems for Merrill Lynch, Business Lenders Inc., and startups.

Tom is the next best thing to having a real cyborg by your side. Early in his career, he built a multi-user video-still library management system and successfully marketed it to Sony's Broadcast Equipment Division. Sony bundled it with their hardware for television stations and deployed it at the U.S. Senate and the Defense Intelligence Agency.

A serial entrepreneur, Tom has spearheaded multiple startups, including banking systems and IT infrastructure for Business Lender's Inc., and a shrink-wrapped sales force automation product for Thumb's Up Software, where he served as President.

Tom has focused on financial and medical software for clients such as Merrill Lynch and various medical practices, but is best known for architecting server and network infrastructures that optimally support critical software systems and security.
