What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior role where I can lead full-stack development for enterprise applications, shape architecture and engineering best practices, and collaborate cross-functionally—while mentoring engineers and improving reliability through CI/CD and automated testing.

I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 14 years of experience designing, developing, and delivering scalable enterprise software solutions across Ireland, the UK, and global technology environments. I specialize in modern frontend and backend development, cloud platforms, API design, and software architecture, and I focus on building reliable, maintainable applications for complex business requirements.

In my recent roles, I lead full-stack development, contribute to architecture decisions, and set engineering best practices. I build backend services with Java and Spring Boot, develop frontend applications with React and TypeScript, and improve quality through automated testing and CI/CD practices while mentoring engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing.
