I am a motivated learner with a great interest in computer science and engineering topics. I thrive on learning new technologies and keeping up to date and then applying these technologies to solve problems at work. I have taken a great interest in developing applications that are scalable, distributed, resilient, and adhere to the principles of the Reactive Manifesto. Combining Typed Functional Programming with the reactive platform is the right way to develop applications with the aforementioned requirements. I believe that great products are not just built with great technical tools but with emotional intelligence and great teams as well.

Senior Functional Programming Developer

I am an experienced and skilled software engineer with a passion for functional programming, particularly in statically typed languages. I have been working professionally in F# in my current role for at least four years, after beginning a journey into learning functional programming about five years ago. My team has just launched a very large project which we have been building for three years, the back end of which is developed in F#. I was responsible for establishing the core foundation of the system, which has proven to be a crucial element in the success of the project. Among the technology team at my current company I have become a respected leader in F# and functional programming, mentoring and guiding other developers in their learning journeys. The problem solving aspect is what I enjoy the most about software engineering. I love designing elegant solutions to complex problems, and I am good at thinking and working in the abstract. Throughout my career, I have regularly found that my colleagues often consult me for advice and assistance with challenging problems. I have always earnt the respect of my team and my employers, and I am frequently entrusted with the most critical development tasks.
