'sup pitches. I'm a software engineer with a passion for code that's been burning strong since 2012. I started my journey with PHP and Codeigniter, and to be honest, those early days were a bit of a rollercoaster. But they were a great learning experience, and that's what counts, right? I eventually found my groove with Ruby on Rails, and it's been an exhilarating ride ever since. All aboard! 🚂 If you're into tech lingo and acronyms, we might share some common ground. Let me drop a few: AWS, RDS, VPC, EC2, OpenSearch, S3, Memcache, JS, PWA, ASL PLS. Yep, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve. Lately, I've been diving into exciting new technologies like Hotwire, Python, Ionic, React, Angular, and Websockets. Staying up-to-date is crucial, right? But life isn't just about coding. I also wear a few other hats! I'm a proud father to two wonderful daughters and a devoted pet parent to three adorable dogs – woof! And let's not forget those mischievous ponies of mine. They're cute, but they can be a handful at times! When I'm not immersed in code or looking after my family and four-legged friends, you'll find me unwinding and cherishing moments with the people I hold dear. It's all about the simple joys in life, you know?

I'm a full-stack Rails developer (although recent projects have concentrated on API-only backends with ReactJS front ends managed by different teams). I've been working with Rails for over 10 years (since version 3.x) and have specialised in making code bases that are easy for teams to read, understand and maintain. Key to those goals are: using standardised code styles (ensuring RuboCop and the team's practices are perfectly aligned) writing well-structured, easy-to-understand and fast tests constructive and collaborative code reviews ensuring documentation, from git histories to READMEs and other materials (online and offline) records useful, meaningful information that can be easily kept up to date and in sync with any code changes I've recently been adding GraphQL to my skill set, which also includes PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Redis and other languages (Swift, PHP, JavaScript, and more). On the front end, I have experience both with Rails' native toolset and with ReactJS, Next.js and React Native. I also have experience of platform-native toolsets such as SwiftUI to deliver applications that feel intrinsically like part of the user’s mobile experience. I've worked on projects of various sizes, from scheduling and booking software for a major tech training company to systems allowing TV distributors to sell thousands of hours of programming all over the world. Ideally, I'm looking to work on products with which I can feel personally invested – an exciting product or tech-for-good project would definitely suit me better than a fintech role.

In 2016 I co-founded Airbyte, a digital product studio and ran it for 3 years. We built native mobile and web apps for startups, SME's and enterprises. We then joined one of our clients and ran tech and product at Wildgoose for over 4 years. Now I'm building my own suite of products and helping others through development and advisory services. I'm deep in the rabbit hole of web3 and AI, I love consumer products and I love building structure from chaos.

I've been working with Ruby for the last 12 or so years building products for small to medium scale companies. I can take an idea to execution, solve hard problems or just provide a hand to your existing team to get stuff done.
