  Richard Genzer: Cricket Software - [Cached Version]
  Published on: 1/1/1986    Last Visited: 3/2/2008  

  By the time Richard joined Cricket software, it had already released two ground-breaking applications -- Cricket Graph and Cricket Draw -- for the Macintosh platform.It was also in the process of porting those applications to the Microsoft Windows operating system.At only the 0.9 version of the OS, Microsoft Windows was nothing more than a graphical suite running on top of DOS at the time.Very few companies were developing for it, there was very little support and the documentation was sparse at best.
  
  Richard was hired to be a part of the team that was porting applications to Windows.The work was a combination of software engineering, "slinging code", detective work and archeology.
  
  After about 1.5 years of work, the team eventually released all three of Cricket's Macintosh applications co-marketed by Xerox -- Graph, Draw and Presents.Cricket Presents was a presentation package, one of only two commercially available at the time.
  
  After the release of these applications, Richard moved into the product management department to become product manager for Cricket Graph.He served as product manager for seven months before leaving the company to join Reality.

  Richard joined Reality to run a technical team dedicated to building custom software for the Prodigy service.
  ...
  While managing the Prodigy efforts, Richard became involved in an increasing number of other custom software projects at the company.These applications included financial planning, portfolio management and sales automation.Richard was promoted to Vice President during this time.
  
  At the same time, Reality was considering a huge transformation of its offering.For the past many years, Reality was offering historical stock and mutual fund information on a quarterly basis, delivered via floppy disk.Reality realized that this was a great business that could be made even better if we delivered this data via modem to a central computer system at Reality's headquarters.
  
  In 1992-3, Richard -- along with others at Reality -- designed and built a transaction processing system that would service the demand for current and historical financial data.At the completion of this, Reality Technologies transformed itself into Reality Online -- becoming the first company to deliver financial data in this way.
  
  From there, Richard was promoted to VP of Development and ran a department of about 40 engineers.Projects included capacity buildouts, portfolio management, financial planning and online brokerage applications.At various times, Richard was also managing other non-technical departments.This included documentation, QA and product management.
  
  In the twilight of Richard's career, he was promoted to chief technology officer and a VP of Development was hired to replace him.During his tenure as CTO, Richard performed regular weekly technology briefings to senior executives and did technical due diligence.
