In a Solution Architect role with Astracon Inc., Don's experience, and his ability to transfer technology on technical topics with authority, contributed to the establishment of commercial relationships with HP, Cisco, and NTT (Japan). A typical engagement was the on-site interfacing of Java-based service automation systems to Cisco Optical Network Elements; Don developed a prototype on time, and delivered design and code walkthroughs to the customer's satisfaction.
