I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable, production-grade systems across energy, financial services, healthcare, and government. Based in Belfast, I've spent most of my career contracting — which means I'm used to taking ownership quickly and delivering in environments where there's no time to warm up slowly. My core is C# .NET full-stack development — clean architecture, high-performance REST APIs, and cloud-native deployments with Docker and Kubernetes. Right now I'm leading backend development on an IoT platform managing thousands of smart grid devices. Before that, I spent five years building enterprise systems for a UK government department, owning everything from architecture to CI/CD pipelines. Beyond the technical work, I've led teams, mentored engineers, and driven the kind of changes that stick — like rolling out GitHub Copilot across my current team in a way that actually changed how we work, not just what tools we use. Sprint velocity went up 20% as a result.
