Coxbit Logo
Coxbit was founded in January 1999 by Henriette Fux and René Aeberhard. Our motto was: Through mysteries to clarity. We are heading directly for solutions. Coxbit's philosophy was strongly influenced by Unix and its tenets: KISS (keep it small and simple); enjoy working for our clients, being proud of our work; inspire; being engaged from the first idea to the running system; building solutions according to the needs of our clients. You know you have reached perfection in design, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing more to be taken away. By Antoine de Saint-Exupery represents our philosophy. Our clients were SBB (Swiss Federal Railways), Swiss Telecom and Postfinance. We've provided turnkey solutions and engineering support in Security, Performance Tuning, Database Migration, CORBA Migration, Application Management, EFT/POS Accounting, International Data Exchange. We were especially proud to have Postfinance - our previous employer - among our clients. The name Coxbit, a made-up word, was born as an early morning inspiration on Henriette's daily train journey to work. Coxbit means to navigate bits. In March 2005 we decided to focus on other challenges and shutdown the operations of Coxbit. Henriette Fux is working as a development manager for Oracle Corporation in Redwood Shores, CA. René Aeberhard, after an interesting time with Zembu Labs, working on infrastructure management software and distributed database, is again working in the financial space, leading PayPal's Architecture Team as a senior manager.
