Hello.

I'm Jonny... a technology focused individual who aims to always exceed delivery expectations. I'm passionate about developing fit for purpose, scalable and practical solutions to meet customer and business needs.

My Ideology

01

Clear
Communication

Clear
Communication

Not everyone Software Engineers work with are geeks. Clear communication and patience is essential if we're to explain complex technologies to those who aren't tech-minded.

02

Quality
Over Quantity

Quality
Over Quantity

Any Software Engineer can churn out hacky code and accumulate huge technical debt in their wake. Architect it, don't hack it - and reap the rewards of a scalable and stable product!

Creating
Shared Success

Software development is a team process. Share experience, knowledge, responsibilities with the ups and the downs; a team will bond, look out for each other and be a success!

It comes with Experience

    Working with the company Director/Senior Software Engineer, we built a CMS using MVC 4.0. This is a stand-alone platform, deployed on a per website basis and contains an administration section to allow customers to manage the content themselves. This was a long-time-coming, well planned and rewarding project by the company Director and meant all their websites were published royalty and licence free and was 100% customisable by them.

In A Nutshell

I'm totally technology focused and aim to always exceed delivery expectations.

I'm an enthusiastic, determined and hard-working person who can work well under pressure and meet deadlines, whether working as a team or independently. I am a capable and confident communicator at all levels.

How It All Began

I was eight, sitting at home doing my homework when my Dad arrived home with a ZX Spectrum.

Within a couple of hours I was copying code from a magazine and rendering out concentric circles on screen and sending them to the noisy, thermal printer to put up on my bedroom wall.

That day, I contracted the coding bug. Thirty-three years later, I'm still developing software, except the circles these days are Agile Circles.

Staying #

I speak to Evangelists and Engineers who are key players in modern Tech.

To stay sharp and up to date, I attend AWS AWSome days, AWS Summits, Twilio Tech Days, New Relic Deep Dives, Monzo Open Offices and other tech events.

Web Development

As a Full-stack developer I've used a number of tools. Whilst my strengths lie in MVC, I always want to know more!

Cryptography

Crypto is a secret pleasure of mine. PGP, PKI, SHA, Rijndael, Twofish, TripeDES, Blowfish... the list goes on!

API

I love developing and connecting API's for aggregating data and providing re-usable and scalable services.
