Currently a full stack developer with my main coding languages being Blade, PHP, Laravel, CSS, JavaScript and can utilize SQL. Currently my primary skillset is taking an existing project from start to finish. Meeting the customer to scope the project. Write a project outline / sales pitch. Write a project plan. Manage the project processes and milestones. Develop a standalone system (either a microservice or a progressive web app using Laravel depending upon scale. Test. Document and then train and handover the finished product.
My Diploma is in Network Administration and while I have moved primarily into web systems, it is still a passion of mine. I still try to keep up to date with the latest technology from both Microsoft and Linux. I can script in both bash and PowerShell. I am also running my own server and hosting my own websites which involves a lot of networking and security management for the server. I currently run a home lab and enjoy experimenting with open-source software and hardware such as Docker and Raspberry Pi’s.
Due to the nature of web development, my last roles have all been remote roles. I have an extensive home office with multiple sit/stand desks, multiple workstations with multiple monitors. A high-end current generation PC. A high-end laptop, high-end tablet and various devices for testing. My office is also well lit naturally with a ring light, high end mic and 1080p camera for streaming/meetings/recording tutorials. I also run my own web hosting infrastructure at home and remotely. This includes utilizing VMs, git servers along with testing, development and production infrastructure.
In my previous roles I have been placed in leadership roles. At AHCWA I oversaw a small dev team and with Azured, as the senior developer I would routinely need to manage another internal or external dev. Due to working remotely and generally being in leadership roles for day-to-day work, I am extremely self-motivated and reliable. I tend to meet required deadlines and if ever not, there will have been plenty of notice and discussion beforehand.
Unfortunately the vast majority of my previous work is owned and internally operated by various organisations and I am unable to show the work here. However, I have created a few small projects that I can show you. Please click on the buttons below to see an animation of various aspects of my projects functions.
