A little more about me
For obvious reasons I cannot discuss what I do in my current role so let me speak generally.
As a Senior Software Engineer, Architect and Dev Team Manager, my primary focus is on effeciently delivering .NET solutions for businesses of all sectors.
Building out scalable solutions in .NET, using modern cloud infractructure and datacentres, I can ensure any solution is delivered using the right tools, for the problem we face. As a Software Engineer today I have a wealth of tools at my disposal, coupled with a quarter of a century (I feel old) of experience in IT and software engineering, there's a solution to every problem!
I work both independently and collaboratively across diverse teams, fostering a positive and productive work environment, vital for productivity and enthusiasm. I thoroughly enjoy mentoring junior developers in all roles, sharing valuable knowledge and best practices. I encourage new ideas from others and always consider new approaches to a problem; the greater the knowledge and the more tools in your toolbox, the more options you have as a solution engineer!
