Company Overview
Background
A mathematician and computer scientist, Tom Snyder struggled through most of his education and schooling. It wasn't until high school that Tom began to learn how to read and it wasn't till many years later when he stumbled upon a speed reading course that he actually understood what he was reading.
And growing up within 3 miles of a nuclear power plant during the 1960's, he saw first hand some devastating impact on the Hudson River and the personal loss to so many families in his small hometown.
Raised in what he refers to as 'loving chaos', the family catering business provided his greatest training. His ability to understand human behavior and treat people right made such a tremendous impact on how he conducts business today. Listening and telling stories are a favorite learnign tool. Two of his favorites are: "Mom versus Mother Nature" and "Dad - The Professor of Equine Profecy". They are lessons in dealing with uncertainty.
Tom's IT career began as an applications developer, but soon moved into the technical services department. This was primarily the result of him finding every 'back-door' approach to get done what he had to do. This move provided Tom the basis for the experience and expertise he's developed in data communications, computer and application security, disaster recovery and system audits.
With a strong ability to love working with people, to get things done, to take nothing for granted, to solve problems, to make decisions, to create positive circles of influence, and to have fun, to teach, to learn, to secure trust, Tom strives to be a trusted individual, a trusted associate and a trusted leader each and every day.
History
geMatrix llc. was formed in 1999 to fulfill the need for building and teaching trusted transactions in an effort spearheaded by a collaboration of trusted institutions within the then banking and financial industry. These transactions included internet based business to business and business to consumer transactions.
A transaction, one that a security threat is identified for, and the corresponding technique put in place to mitigate this threat, is known to us as The Trusted Transaction. From the beginning, it is our signature approach in everything we do.
Learning Services
Within our first year of operations, IBM Learning Services provided a contract to teach a variety of Web Based and Middleware technology based workshops. This initial offering provided learning services to over 1500 IT professionals in the first few years of business.
Our expertise, our drive, our passion, our background, led us to develop our own courseware. We then embarked on providing our own training programs and successfully designed, built and delivered customized courses for both the insurance and retail industry. We have expanded this effort to be cross-industry and now provide training to all levels of professional skill-sets.
Integration Services
Our hands-on background in EDI and integration solutions provided the basis for understanding the complexities of systems while our networking and trust building skills helped develop the client trust that allows us the expanded levels of services we offer today.
International Consulting
Our knowledge combined with our know-how inspired customers to engage our staff for both implementation and support services. Before long, we were hired by a software company to develop a Global Technical and implementation services strategy which included an offshore strategy and a technology partner program.
Renewable Energy Software
With our international services background combined with an in-depth knowledge of analyzing, designing and building web based applications, we engaged our efforts in an innovative carbon reduction software project, aimed to cut CO2 emissions while recycling renewable wood waste.
Environmental and Recycling Software
Our background leads us to make a positive difference to our environment. We are working with partners to develop a community and web based environmental software product called Project Woodpecker.
