What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that values innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated software engineer with a strong focus on designing and implementing cloud-based solutions using AWS. Currently, I work at Roke, where I leverage services such as CloudFormation, AWS SDK (Python), and Fargate to create innovative and reliable products. My role involves not only technical implementation but also managing a small team of developers, ensuring that we deliver high-quality solutions efficiently.

Prior to my current position, I worked as a tax analyst at Deloitte, where I developed a keen understanding of complex problem-solving and client advisory. My experience in drafting technical memos and publishing letters to HMRC has honed my communication skills, allowing me to convey intricate information clearly and effectively. I believe that my out-of-the-box thinking and creative, people-centric approach are essential in every project I undertake.
