Professional Experience

2A7P0341
David built a successful career at Washington Mutual, he was initially hired as part of an elite group of technology professionals brought in to help modernize the bank's somewhat backward technology, implement best practices and build and document processes to streamline delivery of services and reduce costs. Within a period of a few years they brought WaMu from the technological stone age to leading the way in technology in the financial services industry.

David managed some of the banks biggest and most complicated technology projects, and gained a reputation for bringing diverse groups together around a common vision and for delivering projects on time and within budget. His team managed to reduce technology infrastructure expenses year after year, sometimes by as much as 20%, while increasing the level of service.

He worked his way up to the role of Senior Solutions Architect before leaving to run for Seattle City Council.
