Throughout my career, I have enjoyed tackling the technical and design challenges that come with crafting quality, maintainable, and reusable code. As a lead developer, I take pride in mentoring my peers and positively impacting both the company and its individuals. I have played a critical role in guiding projects from inception through delivery and onto continuous development. My goal is to drive projects that align with client visions while providing an agile roadmap for implementation. I have applied my leadership skills across multiple teams in high-velocity startups, as well as in highly structured departments of large organizations. This diverse experience has strengthened my ability to quickly adapt and thrive in new environments. My expertise in technical problem solving spans various industries, including health, education, energy, defence, and manufacturing. I excel at quickly grasping domain knowledge and applying my skills to discover multiple technical use cases tailored to the target domain. In my most recent role I served as the primary technical point of contact between stakeholders and teams. As the first technical member of the team, I established foundational working practices, procedures, and software architecture. I believe that fostering a culture rooted in agile methodologies is key to building a strong and motivated team. As we are in tech revolution, its important to highlight how AI LLM are changing how software is developed. My qualifications included machine learning courses and developers are finding new ways to develop faster and better software using tooling workflow. I have experience in generating neural networks, implementing LLM API, and using on edge AI libraries. Like many developers I am striving to keep on top of advancements by trying latest LLM locally, and keep an eye on the latest research papers. I am invested in leveraging this new tooling as it becomes more generally available.
Passionate about computer science and electronics since I am 12. Constantly picking up new skills, ideas always pop up in my mind to improve and develop upon what already exists. Currently focused on backend software (embedded C; C++/QT; python), but front end can also be fun (angular). For more informations: https://roblot.io/
