As tech lead at Romax InSight I oversaw and delivered the technical handover and knowledge share during an acquisition by Castrol.I led a team of 3 developers and developed a wind turbine monitoring system which was used globally. This was written in Python with a frontend in javascript. When I became tech lead I transitioned a legacy frontend to Angular and created an architecture to gradually break a monolith system into distributed microservices.
