I have had the pleasure to work in a team that 'owns the uptime' of the cloud services it develops and maintains. Rigorous code reviews, high automated test coverage and exploratory testing, repeatable builds and deployments as well as accurate monitoring are just some of the mechanisms that we used to provide reliable identity and licensing services that.

Over the course of five years, I have driven the architecture and implementation of batch and near-real time analytics processing on Google Cloud Platform, replacing existing analytics functionality on Hadoop with a REST API driven analytics system. I led the evaluation of data processing technologies, which resulted in Apache Beam (back then Google.

Happy diving in the backend using Java web services, JSON, Camel, Lucene, etc, to provide scalable and high volume infrastructure. Driving test driven and automated testing, embracing agile development.

More in-depth knowledge of Asian culture and history.

Part of EPCC's Exascale Technology Centre, looked ahead onto the challenges when scaling applications up to 100,000s of cores once supercomputers reach 'exaflop' speed. Low-level analysis and benchmarks of communication and memory issues on thousands of processors. Worked in a small team, independently and collaboratively.

Experienced Latin-American culture and high-altitude hiking.

London, United Kingdom

Developed Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithms in hardware (FPGA) by using Maxeler's own Java-based FPGA acceleration platform. This involved algorithm design for the stream-computing model, implementation, analysing data locality, and numerical precision and performance testing. Multiple times speedup while maintaining high numeric precision was the.

Travelled in Asia and Australasia to experience Non-Western culture and customs.

Several Core Java projects using Web Services, with national/international collaborations (regular telephone conferences as well as meetings). Enabled cancer gene analysis by parallelising serial Fortran code onto 500+ processors; understanding genetics for code analysis, choice of parallelisation model, performance optimisation, and testing were key areas.

The Institute for Information Systems & Information Management (IIS) combines Internet technologies with databases to create extensive Web information systems.Developed client-server software (C++, Web Services) and regular collaborations with international project partners in two EU projects.

Austria

Student placement during last two semesters as part of the curriculum. Developed a passive monitoring system for C and Java processes. Project formed part of undergraduate thesis.

Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Voluntary summer internship to improve my English and gather international experience. Developed a suite of graphical tools in PHP to analyse usage of university online courses.
