Brendan in a few words
Hello! 👋
I'm a senior software engineer with over 6 years of experience in the industry. I'm mostly specialised on the backend side of the spectrum, having spent over 4 years as a core contributor to server-side projects around the Matrix open standard, but I've also worked a bit with frontend development and devops.

Why work with me?
- I'm a fast learner: I can adapt very quickly to new projects and frameworks, even outside of the languages and platforms I'm not already familiar with.
- I get things done: I have a track record of seeing projects all the way to their completion, and possibly even further. My experience working with open standards has enabled me to own projects from writing the specification all the way to interacting with the ops team to get the implementation deployed in production.
- I'm meticulous: When I'm tasked with a new project, I don't just read the requirements and implement them; I try to understand how the project fits within the company's product, and engage with stakeholders to ensure the project can progress in the best conditions possible, and to address any issue or blocker as soon as possible.
- I communicate: I believe communication is key in a project. I have experience of interacting with internal stakeholders, whether they have a technical background or not, and with customer. I know how to adapt to my audience and communicate effectively on the context and progress of a project to ensure a smooth delivery.
