At Push Gaming, I develop and maintain a microservices infrastructure using Java Spring, enabling clients to host our games on their platforms. I manage tasks throughout the entire development lifecycle, from requirements gathering to deployment, and contribute to both backend development and frontend UI tasks with API integration. I leverage AWS and Kubernetes for deploying and managing applications, and utilise GitHub Actions to automate CI/CD workflows. Additionally, I have built and optimised Grafana dashboards with Slack alerting, enhancing visibility into production errors and system reliability. My role also involves working with tools like Kubernetic and Grafana to monitor and troubleshoot microservices, and I enhanced system stability by implementing PIT Mutation Testing across several repositories.

Quickly integrated into the team, improving the Java codebase by resolving defects and leading key refactoring efforts. I spearheaded the implementation of a staging area to address concurrency issues, significantly improving user experience and optimising processing capabilities. Unfortunately, I left this role due to company-wide redundancies as a result of scaling back.

Contributed to a full-stack team developing an internal ratemaking platform, delivering high-quality API’s and a React front end that helped the business solidify the insurance ratemaking process. Completed an 8-week full-stack development training course, mastering front end technologies (JavaScript, ReactJS, HTML, CSS) and backend technologies (Java, Spring, TDD, CI/CD). Collaborated with a multinational team in Chicago, leveraging strong interpersonal skills to quickly establish effective working relationships.
