Past
I was a senior engineer and technical lead at the Financial Times.
I worked on paywall performance optimisations, then led the team that implemented GDPR compliance on ft.com, and finished with a stint in the Operations & Reliability team.
Separately, I was a member of the FT's Cyber Security Guild.
Present
I'm a DevRel engineer at Fastly.
I've worked on our Developer Hub, advocated for OpenAPI, and laid the groundwork for code-generated API clients. I particularly enjoy cooking up experiments in edge computing – like neural network inference (thanks, Rust).
Infrequently published articles are here and here.
My current interests are authentication, trust and resilience.
Future
Next speaking at AWS Summit Milano (22 June 2023).
I love tech conferences! I've spoken at many, including LeadDev, NodeConf, DevOpsCon, and performance.now().
