I founded, designed, and built Audio Diary, a cross-platform voice journaling consumer app. Audio Diary currently has 25k users and 300k entries recorded just over a year after launch with only organic growth so far. Audio Diary has gotten lots of positive feedback, particularly on the Play Store, where it has 600+ 5-star reviews.

As a full-stack developer and team lead at DAD, I played a crucial role in building and scaling a mobile app used by people all over London with over 300 5-star reviews on iOS and Android. I assembled a team, managed the development pipeline, liaised with the founder, and was responsible for designing the app's infrastructure. I co-built and co-designed an MVP with a talented and hard-working developer under strict timelines, leading to a turnaround time of 2 months to build an app that had 5,000 users by the end of week 1.I onboarded and mentored a developer on a summer internship once the app became more established in London and onboarded a permanent senior developer. We built an admin panel in Svelte for customer support, analytics, marketing, directing riders, A/B testing for ad campaigns, and built landing pages in Next.js.

I designed and developed a distributed music streaming solution for Immedia, which is used in thousands of retail locations across Europe. My client gave me high-level business objectives and free reign with the design of the system, both visually and architecturally. A centrally-hosted cloud-based server powers the music played in Subways, Ikeas, and JD Sports, all across Europe. The client is very happy with the product and it has been running for years without any major issues. You can see a demo of the system here: https://youtu.be/LPIm2EDlorE

I worked with a tech stack of React/TypeScript to develop a complex web game which utilises modern web architecture (Reactjs) overlayed on graphics rendered by the Pixi game engine. I gained exposure to web programming from a new perspective by fulfilling the requirement to develop a highly performant application using limited resources.

Toothpic (now part of Quip) is a dental health startup. Being mostly focused on the frontend in this role, I became familiar with React, as well as getting used to the fast pace required in a startup environment. As part of this role, we had many projects which the team and I built from the ground up.

Distilled SCH owns Daft.ie and Adverts.ie, two of Ireland's biggest websites. I was responsible for development and maintenance of new website features (many of which are still in use today), along with rewriting and maintaining older sections of the sites (PHP/jQuery). Towards the end of my role, I designed A/B tests on users to increase conversion and user retention.
