MixRadio

• Software Engineer

  • Mar 2015 - Apr 2016

  Microsoft then spun off MixRadio to become an independant entity, where I continued working on the in-house content managment system for a period (Java RESTful services, MongoDB, AngularJS). Once that was in a good state, I moved into the web team, working on the streaming music web app that was present in over thirty territories, where I learnt the importance of mobile first, responsive and accessible design. Being a young project, it was a great opportunity for us to use the latest JavaScript build tools, testing frameworks and libraries, including ES2015, ReactJS, Fluxxor, Jasmine, Grunt and Node.js, all being served from a Clojure web service.

Microsoft

  • Mar 2014 - Mar 2015

  Because Microsoft acquired Nokia Smart Devices, my job remained unchanged from Nokia, thus the final portion of the Nokia description applies here. In fact, because Microsoft then spun MixRadio off as an independent entity shortly afterwards, this entry is merely a stepping stone to the next!

Nokia

• 700 & Above Employee

• Rollout Engineer > Technical Solutions Manager > Software Engineer

  • Jan 2009 - Feb 2014

  Began my life with Nokia as a member of the Rollout Engineer team, responsible for configuring, deploying and managing the release of our service across a global market, coordinating with our in country teams. Following that I joined a development team that managed EMC Documentum ECMS, writing extensions and custom transforms written in Java, XML, and XSLT. After that was retired, I moved into a team whose job it was to design and develop web-focused solutions for managing campaigns and other means to assist in generating interest and awareness in our service. I was also responsible for configuring and maintaining our development and production environments: a set of clustered LAMP stacks. I then got re-positioned to eventually become the main developer on the in-house content management system set up to replace Documentum: - Front-end tech: AngularJS for the logic, Bootstrap for the UI. Selenium for acceptance testing (soon to be replaced in it's entirety with Milli-Vanilli) and Jasmine for unit tests. Grunt, Git. - Back-end tech: Java, MongoDB. JUnit for unit testing, in-house rest driver for acceptance tests. - service-orientated architecture, Agile and TDD and CI practices Show less
