About
My name is Tom Chikoore. I am a technology leader with 14+ years of experience delivering software products at both market leading companies and start-up and growth environments. I am a passionate entrepreneur with proven track record of innovation, risk taking, solving the toughest problems and building execution-oriented teams. I am also social entrepreneur devoted to the application of low cost technology to solve problems for the technologically disadvantaged. I am an entrepreneur with a heavy software engineering background. I have a BS in Computer Science and an MBA, both of which intersect to help me specialize in turning ideas into products. In short, I make software happen. I have done my time in great software engineering organizations like Oracle and now I am living life in the exciting startup lane. Currently, I am working on the next generation mining and application of web data (beyond web pages).
I am co-founder and CTO of Filtrbox (http://www.filtrbox.com), a Boulder, Colorado based startup. Filtrbox was acquired by Jive Software in January, 2010.
