Continuing our Meet the BlackBerry Developer Support Forum Expert series, we’d like to introduce you to simon_hain, known as Simon Hain in real life. This is what he has to say about himself:
I’ve worked as a BlackBerry developer since 2003. I live in Hamburg, Germany and work for ISEC7, a strategic partner of BlackBerry. You can follow me on Twitter at @SimonHain.
I develop mainly enterprise applications, including MobileExchangeDelegate and MobilityForSAP.
In 2013 I was a speaker at BlackBerry Jam Europe in Amsterdam and BlackBerry Jam Asia in Hong Kong, where I spoke about bringing Java apps to BlackBerry 10 and build automation.
I started out developing with many questions, and the developer support forum was the place where I found the answers. After a time I was able to give a few answers myself, in order to give back some of the help I received. The forums are a very friendly place, with some very knowledgeable developers helping out, as well as BlackBerry’s own developers assisting with their knowledge. It’s one of the places where I like to stay when I am online.
