Resume

Internal promotion to establish the software engineering team from scratch, owning cloud architecture and delivery across fifteen production systems. Reports to the CEO.

• Built an event-driven, cloud-native data integration platform on Azure Service Bus, Functions and Event Grid, processing millions of messages with near real-time sync.
• Designed a repairs workflow system modelling repair processes as a dynamic graph of steps, guiding technicians through variable procedures - replacing an unstructured ticketing process and enforcing consistent data entry and process compliance.
• Built a customer-facing portal and migrated the legacy storefront to BigCommerce with per-customer catalogues, auth integration, and client-specific business logic. Directly contributed to winning multiple major banking and government contracts worth a combined $30m+.
• Delivered projects on time and to spec end to end - requirements, design and implementation: Dynamics 365 migration, customer portal build, BigCommerce migration.
• Built integrations with 15+ APIs across ticketing, eCommerce, distributors and Microsoft services.
• Built an internal-tools framework for .NET Blazor that generates forms and pages from C# class definitions, cutting new internal-tool development from weeks to days.
• Standardised CI/CD by building a reusable, composable GitHub Action for Azure Functions and Bicep deployments - automated testing, multi-environment deployment, and rollback.

Internal promotion. Supported customers and internal staff while introducing PowerShell automation to improve team operations.

• Introduced PowerShell automation for routine support and provisioning tasks, cutting manual effort and improving consistency across the team.

• Built a Ruby web application to automate ordering of replacement parts from a site with no API, saving 30 minutes per day and reducing errors.
