I’m a software developer by trade who after years of leaving articles and blog posts all over the place has finally gotten around to consolidating them all into this single site.
I am a professional software engineer who has been working in development with a focus on testing for over 15 years. In that time I have played an integral part in developing and implementing testing methodologies for all sorts of projects including,
- Internal web based applications supporting thousands of users
- Customer facing websites with 10’s of millions of uniques a day
- Large financial applications handling multi billion dollar projects
- HR applications for 10’s of thousands of employees dealing with sensitive information
- Internal desktop applications used across company groups connecting to centralised servers
- Highly performant web service endpoints supporting entire businesses
- ETL systems processing millions of records every hour
- Backend integration with SAP for large energy providers
- Large scale deployment and management of AWS services and systems
- Metadata Content Archive for 4500 TB of video/audio content with transcoding (2019)
