About

ENGINEER.
CRAFTSMAN.
TEAM PLAYER.

Most engineers write code. I help build systems.

After 6+ years shipping products at scale - from payment integrations across UK, DE and ES markets to an NHS genomic medicine platform used by clinicians - I've learned that the best technical decisions come from people who understand both the architecture and the user at the end of it.

I specialise in API-driven solutions and solution architecture, but what I'm really doing is translating complexity: between engineering and product, between technical teams and business stakeholders, between what's been asked for and what's actually needed. That's where I've found the most value - and where I've delivered it, including $8M in projected business value and a 58% reduction in customer care calls.

I care as much about the people I build with as the products we build. The best codebases are the ones where the next engineer thanks you for leaving it better than you found it.

Philosophy

Build systems that outlast the sprint. Ship products users actually need. Leave the codebase better than you found it. If an item improves user experience, it's ready to be shipped.

Strengths

Full-stack architecture, API design, team mentorship, product thinking, incident response

Off the Clock

Football

Sunday league player, weekday (pretend) analyst. Football taught me pain.

Golf

Perpetually trying to break 85. Golf is humbling - I have a love/hate relationship with it.

🍳

Cooking

The kitchen is where I decompress. Precision, timing, iteration - some would say it maps perfectly to engineering.

🏋️

Training

Consistent training habits is important to me and my health.
