Some of the core business orientated highlights:

• From ideation to implementation, arranged and organised a group of developers and platform engineers to migrate from legacy container images to new image structure and format. Reduced custom designs to industry best practices, and derisked a 3 year old security concern
• Migrated 17 ccTLDs to a singular locale aware domain, for 30+ microservices in a 3 phase roll out for a 10 year old application without downtime
• Designed and implemented changes to an automation which resulted in ~2 million euro a year worth of cost savings
• Produced, organised and promoted many new artefact and their structures (documentation, automations, etc) in a landscape where such artefacts were not commonplace
• Spotted the need -> Organised and developed Kubernetes Base training to bring developer skills up to a base standard for the company

I also like to create a positive developer culture, so there's a bunch of these:

• Formed groups of ICs to brainstorm and develop the next generation of Developer Experience for the company
• Contributed, evolved and actively promoted Internal Tech Talks, External Tech Blog, and an Internal Tech Unconference
• Created a fireside chat format with all of CXX and Extended management when the company shifted to remote working to bring out the human side of management

I originally started working with Guidion whilst I was consulting at Nextview around March '17.

Largest achievements:

• Led the technical implementation of a migration from a 10 yr old system to a new platform.
• Built a reliable Financial Integration that in one year processed €30+ million through 900,000+ transactions.
• Created and implemented developer tools in a platform where it wasn’t common, including: Semver, linting, test automation, etc. Was recognised by the host platform provider.
• Succeeded in using bleeding edge technology, whilst contributing back to the community, encouraging other developers to move towards modern technology and modern toolsets.

Environment:

• Created and set a standard for tight team and business collaboration through clear presentations in understandable terms for all parties.
• Setup a documentation standard for consistent System documentation.
• ~800 userbase dealing with complex app business logic. Specifically materials and product dependencies, completion gates, complex validations etc.
• Most senior dev on staff. Accountable for overall software, system, and object architecture, however preferred to delegate and rotate responsibility to ensure everyone was engaged.

Nextview (formerly Beethree) was my first job in The Netherlands. Nextview is a Salesforce consultancy, where I worked on varying clients, including Guidion for the better part of 8 months.

I participated in the full spectrum of consultancy activities from presales through to development and support. I was relied on for my depth and knowledge of Salesforce, along with my systems architecture knowledge to bring quality implementations for the clients I worked on.

My approach to requirements was to always ask for the "Why" to ensure I was building the right thing that would actually solve the business problem. I engaged with decision makers to ensure that we were working together.

This is where I started heavily using and implementing SFDX, along with CI/CD to ensure that our team was as productive as possible.

Various roles over 5 years including Reporting Analyst, Business Improvement Manager, and Business Analyst. More details can be provided on request.
