About
Hi, I'm Lewis - a software engineer passionate about building smart, efficient systems. I love designing and implementing solutions that make technology work seamlessly, whether that's through PLC's and robotics, or intuitive web applications and business software.
I have hands-on experience in React, Golang, .NET, and SQL, I enjoy working across the stack to create scalable, maintainable, and impactful software. My background in industrial automation has given me a deep appreciation for reliability, precision, and elegant engineering - qualities I bring to every project I take on.
When I'm not coding, I'm usually taking photographs, experimenting with side projects, or hiking in the great Irish weather.
