Fail Fast, Fail Often, Fix Quickly, Happy days
I've always had an interest in all things 'techy' but and always wanted a job in IT but didn't go the conventional college/uni route after leaving school.
Instead I had numerous office/manual jobs before getting an opportunity to help with a project to work along side Business Analysts, Solution Architects/Designers, Software Developers, Project and Programme Managers and Software Test Analysts to help design a new web based system to be used by the staff on the front line in the call centres.
This lead to an opportunity/secondment for me to join the Software Testing which I spent 7 years working on various projects in both Waterfall and Agile Software Development Lifecycles.
I've been a keen software developer and a hobbyist programmer and have finally secured a role as a Junior Software Developer with my current employer learning developing new systems using cutting edge technologies in an enterprise environment.
Work Terms
Willing to take on small to medium projects which I can work on in my spare time, as I am a full time employee this will mean I have to fit work in during evenings and weekends.
