Experienced developer, based in York, UK and specialising in developing usable web applications.
Contracted out to develop a SAAS application, designed and implemented the system using the Kohana Framework.
Co-created an unofficial unit testing module for the framework, as well as a number of unit tests.
After a while the module was adopted as the official unit testing system for the project and I was invited onto the the core development team.
I was introduced to the company through a 6 month internship as part of the Duke of Edinburgh Award. Once the placement was complete they hired me on a part time basis, to fit around my A levels.
During my first period of employment my main responsibility was maintaining an in house, consumer focussed web application. This involved refactoring an established codebase and setting up a continuous integration system.
After a short period of unemployment I was re-hired, with a primary focus of developing and maintaining web applications for clients.
