I am a developer of 20 years. Having worked in many industries including Finance(Banking), Games, Healthcare, Automotive, Recruitment and many more. And for big companies and brands such as Disney, Jaguar Landrover, EE also many more. I have learned a lot about not only software development but also a lot of ancillary skills including security, management and also many more. I am predominantly an iOS developer but have worked and shipped many Android, Backend, and Infra projects over the years. This has given me a wide range of skills and understanding of how an entire product is build and managed outside of just mobile app development. I ran a software agency I part owned in London which has given me a lot of experience of managing teams both small and large. Presently I am looking for a new iOS role to sink my teeth into and use the many skills i have both learned on other projects but also new ones picked up from working on side projects and researching more modern techniques including AI.
