Hi, I'm James.
I do software engineering.
Here's where I put public thoughts longer
than a tweet toot (skeet?).
Climate + Tech. Experienced software engineer. Been through Nokia,
F-Secure, LShift, OliverWyman, universities. Have built large
backend systems, frontends, mobile frameworks, done DevOps, and a
few tours of academia, have sorted out teams, done data science etc,
etc. Have committed architecture, but like to keep at least one foot
on the ground.
Working on convincing companies to build more efficient systems
→ lower power → cheaper to run → lower CO2.
🇦🇺→🇫🇮→🇬🇧.
Details in the CV.
