Message

At Putti, I lead a team of 10 developers and build the base templates and architecture that new projects start from. I’ve helped move the team to a TypeScript stack and support rescue projects by taking over and stabilising live systems.

For an electric vehicle charging platform, I built most of the back end, including an OCPP 1.6 central system for charger messages and remote commands. I also built charging payments and revenue journals, and deployed the platform on Microsoft Azure.
