I've always had an affinity for technology, and loved making things for as long as I can
|
|
|
|
|
|
remember. My first computer was an Amstrad CPC 464 way back in the 90s, which is ancient by modern
|
|
|
|
|
|
standards. My passion for tinkering continued through my teens and into adulthood where I
|
|
|
|
|
|
eventually found my way into software engineering.

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
In terms of my experience to date, I have a strong foundation in both front-end and back-end
|
|
|
|
|
|
development. I enjoy working with React to create dynamic and response user interfaces,
|
|
|
|
|
|
and I have a deep understanding of Java for building powerful and scalable applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recently, I achieved one of my milestones which was to get AWS certified by the end of 2022.

Currently, I work in the aviation industry for Aer Lingus as a software engineer where I work
|
|
|
|
|
|
on exciting software projects for the airline. This includes everything from bug fixing, to
|
|
|
|
|
|
working on legacy code and greenfield projects, to building customer-facing websites and services.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I am responsible for ensuring that our software is of the highest quality, and that it meets the
|
|
|
|
|
|
needs of our customers and stakeholders. The most fulfilling part of my job is knowing that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
software I contribute to will be used by many thousands of people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
In my free time, I enjoy staying up-to-date on the latest developments in the world of software
|
|
|
|
|
|
engineering, and I am always looking for new ways to push the boundaries of what is possible with
|
|
|
|
|
|
technology. I'm a huge advocate of free and open-source software and maintain a small
|
|
|
|
|
|
Raspberry Pi server which I use to experiment with Docker containers for self-hosted
|
|
|
|
|
|
services like Bitwarden, Nextcloud and Octoprint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the hardware side, I build and maintain my own computers and I like to upgrade and modernise
|
|
|
|
|
|
retro video game systems. When I'm not tinkering, I mostly spend time with my
|
|
|
|
|
|
family and enjoy travelling whenever I can get away.
