I'm friendly, honest and reliable. I'm able to work with others and respond creatively to problems. I pick up and understand new ideas quickly and am able to put them in to practise immediately. I have a keen interest in all aspects of software development. I have experience in a wide range of languages, libraries and platforms. Most recently I've been working on ReactJS and Typescript applications backed by nodejs backends hosted via Google Cloud.
I've worked in a team of up to 10 people with code reviews, tests and continous integration and down to a team of one.
Typescript, NodeJS, React, Postgresql
At GoodHuman I worked as part of a team on designing and developing a backend public API to provide an interface for integrating GoodHuman with external services.
Python (flask, sqlalchemy), AWS Lambda, Postgresql
My work at Rosemary Health required me to get up to speed with a fast growing team and a codebase with a slow and complex development, build and deploy setup.
I was involved in working to simplify the build and development environments to allow the team to scale up.
Ruby on Rails(3.2-5.2), Javascript (React, Antd, Backbonejs, Redux, GraphQL(Apollo), SQL(Postgresql))
I worked as a critical part of a team developing a variety of new versions of the product built on Reactjs with a Ruby On Rails backend.
I worked as the only developer/ops/support for 18 months (2016-2018) during a time of low growth. This involved migrating/consolidating infrastructure, feature development, responding to service problems, bugfixes and customer support.
From 2018, the team grew again and we started major feature development again. I continued as a critical team member, provided mentoring to junior developers and spearheaded the process of migrating legacy parts of the application from BackboneJS to React, Typescript and GraphQL/Apollo.
Ruby on Rails(2.3, 3.2), Javascript(Backbonejs, JQuery, React)
Developing a CMS for the editing, processing and deployment of content for dynamic touchscreen displays in public spaces.
2 person team, PHP(Magento), MySQL, developing and maintaining multiple ecommerce sites based on Magento for a number of fashion brands.
A small team using PHP, MySQL to add features to a web app for auctions.
