Having successfully designed and built various fully fledged feature rich games with structurally sound infrastructure.Within a month of joining Derivco, I was selected to be part of a 4 man team of developers tasked with building a brand new highly configurable online gambling client. We designed, architected and implemented it within 8 months and we have since been upgrading it to fit the entire spectrum of business requirements. I have been technically leading teams for the past 2 years where we have built complex features, automation tools for testing and reporting, performance optimisation plugins to the ecosystem and internal frameworks among others, all of which are currently used to a large extent.

I am of the opinion that graduate developers are able to teach Senior Architect's pivotal lessons, and therefore we can never learn enough. We can only know what we choose to know. With this in mind, I use various sources to ensure that my knowledge is at a level which is as current with the rest of the world as possible - sometimes beyond :)I subscribe to various mail chains which aid you in looking for the latest trends and ongoings, these being: FrontEnd Weekly, Javascript Weekly… Show more I am of the opinion that graduate developers are able to teach Senior Architect's pivotal lessons, and therefore we can never learn enough.

I also follow many podcasts from conferences around the world. I have been through training courses with speakers such as Juval Lowy - Architecture Master Class, and I attended Websummit in Portugal in 2017, and am attending QCon 2018 in New York towards the end of June.I have been building systems and applications for the past 5 years in my own time. Having successfully completed 3 fully fledged systems integrated with various 3rd party vendors, these were developed on a contractual basis. I have built a host of feature rich mini games, and my own business scheduling management system. All of these were designed and built by myself and they can be made available for you to see on request.The above systems were built on a variety of technologies specific to their requirements and their date of inception. Some of the earlier systems were built with MVC and ASP.NET service architecture and SQL Server. While the more recent projects were created using a variation of more modern technologies and frameworks such as AngularJS, React, VueJS, ASP.NET, Web API and MongoDB as well as Database Azure 2012.
