I am a software engineer with experience building front ends and microservices for full stack SaaS web applications. I specialise in React and JavaScript, and have recent experience working with TypeScript, Spring Framework, Java and Kotlin, MySQL and containerised deployments leveraging Docker, Kubernetes and surrounding tooling.I believe that software development is a team sport, first and foremost. I enjoy solving engineering problems in cross-functional teams, delivering well tested, reliable applications to customers. I have an excellent track record of working with product managers, UX researchers and designers, security and performance engineers and database administrators to ensure we are building the right thing and taking the right approach with a given task or feature.I value the experience of continuous learning and seek to work for organisations that embrace learning and growth as a way to help driven people to deliver a great product. In the spirit of continuous learning and knowledge sharing, I contribute to my local software development community in my spare time, attending meetups and mentoring beginners and junior developers.
