The best way to get a sense of the kinds of people who are at mxData is to hear from them in their own words. We've asked people from a variety of roles and departments to tell a little about themselves, their experiences and their thoughts about mxData.

Hamid joined mxData in summer 2011 as a software developer. Known to some as the resident Android platform evangelist, he has plenty to say on the matter, sometimes too much. He has no problems switching sides for a bit of a fling with other mobile platforms now and again.

Antony joined the Support Department at mxData in 2010 and deals with the majority of customer support and therefore tries to see as much of what we do at mxData from the customers point of view. He also deals with, amongst many things, social media, safety cameras, numerous reports and 40 very important keys.
At the weekend he can be heard all over the world on the radio/online broadcasting from Manchester, and can be heard by his neighbours bashing a tune out on the piano from his back room.
