<li>

Aug 2024 - present, Scott Logic. Building a fullstack application for
|
|
||||||
a large financial institution. Java Spring Boot microservices on the
|
|
||||||
backend, Angular on the frontend, with Kafka, MongoDB and Elasticsearch
|
|
||||||
as supporting technologies.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
2024, Scott Logic. Researched the potential of applying LLMs to
|
|
||||||
automated accessibility testing of websites, using Langchain Python
|
|
||||||
library, elementary prompt engineering techniques, and various scripting
|
|
||||||
languages to knit all our data together.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
2023, Scott Logic. Investigated the accessibility of the
|
|
||||||
<a href="https://blog.scottlogic.com">Scott Logic blog</a> both manually
|
|
||||||
and using automated tools, including pa11y and Lighthouse. Made several
|
|
||||||
recommendations for improvements.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
2023, Scott Logic. Built a social app with a React/Redux frontend and a
|
|
||||||
Spring Boot backend, deployed via Azure Pipelines onto an AWS EC2
|
|
||||||
instance, as part of the Scott Logic Graduate Programme.

2021, FreeAgent. Analysed how front-end developers were consuming the
|
|
||||||
FreeAgent design system for the Design System Team as a summer
|
|
||||||
internship.

<h2>Passions</h2>
|
|
||||||
<ul>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
I would love to see ordinary people empowered to engage with Web
|
|
||||||
technology as sovereign citizens, owning their own data, with the
|
|
||||||
ability to choose freely between competing digital services. I haven't
|
|
||||||
yet been shaken out of my naïve hope for the IndieWeb, though I
|
|
||||||
recognise it has a long way to go before it is ready for mass adoption.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
I love Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of the world. Lots of people believe
|
|
||||||
that there is some higher power behind the things we can see, and Jesus
|
|
||||||
has revealed who God is by being made flesh, dying on the cross and by
|
|
||||||
being raised to a new Resurrection life, in which we are all invited to
|
|
||||||
participate. And I think that's pretty gnarly.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
I love hillwalking. A day in the hills is the best kind of rest I know.
