@johnbaker
Software developer experienced in C++, C# and embedded systems.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I am a software engineer experienced in C++, C# and C, focused on medical, spectroscopy, motion-control and measurement applications. I enjoy continuous self-development and regularly build personal projects using Dart, Flutter and TypeScript.
During my degree I achieved a First-Class Honours BSc in Computer Science and Informatics with a year in industry, and I have applied that training through graduate and developer roles at Renishaw across multiple product divisions.
At Renishaw I have developed embedded C software, implemented features and fixed bugs in C++ and C#, designed CI/CD pipelines, automated repository splitting and streamlined testing with PowerShell. I have worked under ISO 13485 and ISO 62304 constraints for neurosurgery software, led sprints and contributed to risk assessments.
I have delivered spectroscopy and CNC machine software, authored unit tests and verification using MATLAB, discovered and documented a security vulnerability with remediation plans, and automated UI test review processes to increase productivity.
