Experienced full-stack developer passionate about clean software solutions.
What I'm looking for
With over 20 years of full-stack web development experience in New Zealand, I thrive on designing and implementing clean, efficient, and maintainable software solutions that drive real value. My journey has equipped me with a strong background in software design and architecture, as well as technical leadership and mentoring across multiple projects.
Currently, I work as an Application and Infrastructure Developer at Vector Energy, where I support and enhance digital platforms for the largest electricity infrastructure provider in New Zealand. My role involves managing application upgrades for AWS-based Java/Spring Boot applications and implementing BDD unit tests to ensure 100% test coverage. I also have extensive experience in Agile development, having facilitated Agile ceremonies and team collaboration to foster a productive work environment.
Throughout my career, I have developed and maintained various high-profile platforms, including a B2B commerce platform for NZ Post and New Zealand’s largest e-commerce site at Countdown. My technical skills span across frontend and backend technologies, including React, Java, and AWS, and I am committed to continuous improvement and adopting modern methodologies to enhance project outcomes.
