Bio
Jack Tinkler
Laura is excellent at talking through and coming up with solutions to difficult problems while being concise and accurate with the explanation. She has great business knowledge and is always helpful at answering questions and being available when someone requires help. Laura is a fantastic pair programmer showing strong coding best practices, high-quality code, and a TDD mindset while allowing idea-sharing and learning from alternative approaches.
Tom Beckenham
Laura was our first permanent employee at Comma. She hired initially in a commercial role and was instrumental in setting up our pilot program with accountants that led to our seed round. From there it was clear from her technical ability that she was destined for a career in product or engineering. She supported customers on a technical level as the product was being built. She was the one person in the company that knew everything about how the product worked and how to work around early technical problems in our payments product. She expressed interest in moving deeper technically and undertook a journey to become a software engineer. Laura is someone I relied on and was a key component of our early team. She was a pleasure to work with and is obviously destined for great things to come.
