+  Co-op Digital — Senior Software Engineer
+  \text{\par
+  Joined the Digital Engineering department within the HQ of The Co-operative
+  Group in 2017. Cross-functional, agile teams. Moved into senior role, mentoring
+  engineers and presenting ideas at the monthly all-teams sessions. Leant towards
+  back-end API development: championed refactoring and local architectural design
+  of complex REST/SOAP integrations as well as being a voice for security across
+  Digital. Largely Python, JavaScript, SQL with Django and React often providing
+  development frameworks. I were also lucky enough to participate in
+  \href{https://xpsurgery.com/}{Kevin Rutherford's XP Surgery} as well as
+  \href{https://www.weareupfront.com/}{Lauren Currie's Upfront workshop}. These
+  are software craftmanship and public speaking workshops respectively.

+  Beautiful Destinations — Software Engineer
+  \text{\par
+  Towards the end of 2016 I were hired by a Shoreditch based startup working
+  in the travel and tourism marketing industry. Working alongside some very
+  experienced engineers, I were responsible for making machine learning code
+  production ready (testing, QA, refactoring); setting up build/test/deploy
+  pipelines; containerizing releases with Docker etc. Learnt Haskell/GHCJS as this
+  was used heavily for enforcing type-safety across the front-add-back end.
+  Haskell and FP remain influential and encouraged me to learn Haskell proper as
+  well as study Category Theory in my spare time.

+  In 2016 I were contracted to build a polling station finder for the UK Brexit
+  referendum as well as custom integration with their existing website. It
+  utilized PostGIS geospacial extension for postgres DB engine with data supplied
+  partially by DemocracyClub. This was a very fast paced project with quick
+  turnaround.
