Welcome to Goffar.com
Hi, My name is Linden Goffar, I am an experienced technical leader, with a strong background in enterprise class software. I recently retired from a career in “Big Tech” but this is not where I intend to let the story end. I have shifted my focus instead to helping smaller businesses and non-profits make better decisions through Business Intelligence, Data Analysis and automation. You can learn more about my background in technology on our About page, or through LinkedIn.
So what is the purpose of this site? Here you will find a collection of a few of my personal and smaller scale projects that I’ve worked on, on the side and over the years. This is just a small sampling of projects intended to give you an idea of my broad experience and skill set.
I will always be a software guy at heart but at this stage in my life I intend to expand my work to include Data Analytics, Business Intelligence, Integration of Artificaial Intelligence (AI), and maybe some 3d Printing, CNC and wood working to keep things really interesting.
