Now

This is a now page — a snapshot of what has my attention at the moment, rather than a record of everything I have done.

Looking for the next thing

I wrapped up close to two years at Societe Generale Global Solution Centre in October 2025, working on cloud platform migration and the backend systems around it. I am currently looking for my next role — ideally something in platform, infrastructure or backend engineering where the problems are genuinely distributed.

If that sounds like your team, get in touch.

Building

Rebuilding this site properly. The old one was a template with my details typed into it; this one is content-driven, so adding a project or a post is a markdown file rather than a merge conflict waiting to happen.

Reading and learning

Going deeper on distributed systems fundamentals — consensus, and the failure modes you only meet at scale. The gap between “I have operated Kubernetes” and “I understand why it makes the choices it does” is wider than it looks from the operator’s side, and I would like to close it.

Writing

Slowly. There is a backlog of things I learned in the last two years that are worth writing down before I forget the details that made them interesting.
