Alfie John - Résumé

My objective is to work on cool stuff.

I've been developing software professionally for over 20 years at all levels (front-end, middleware and back-end) but now find myself enjoying life most when my time is spent on the backend; building services, developing tools to help get things done, automating everything so that repeatability is the norm, and creating automated tests so that we can all sleep better at night.
