I am an experienced developer with over 35 years in the industry and a degree in computing and micro-electronics. I've worked as a developer on projects in both the private and public sector covering a variety of disciplines from assembly language to web design. Over the last 10 years I've worked primarily on Python / C based server-side projects and Python / Javascript / Vue full-stack projects. I also have a background in Internet architecture, hosting and virtual systems and have worked extensively on Cloudflare, DO and raw virtualisation such as KVM, Docker, VMware and Zen. I am and have been heavily involved in Open Source and have authored and contributed to many publically visible projects.
