Building bespoke, customer-requested integrations between Content Guru's cloud contact-centre platform and third-party CRM, ticketing and business systems.

  • Build ASP.NET Core APIs and C#/.NET integration services using dependency injection, the mediator pattern and background services, turning customer requirements into production features.
  • Own the Pega integration, working directly with Pega's team through to customer delivery: screen pops inside Pega when a call reaches an agent, and automatic case creation from call data such as agent legs, wrap codes, transcripts and summaries.
  • Work on a ServiceNow integration for internal ticketing, keeping updates in sync between the support team and customers.
  • Build React and TypeScript frontends for integration configuration, owning features end to end from requirements to release.
  • Write the Docker builds and Helm charts for my services, deploy to the Kubernetes test environment, and help plan and test production releases.
  • Test at every layer: xUnit unit and integration tests for APIs, Cypress component and screenshot tests for frontends, and Playwright end-to-end tests written in Cucumber syntax.
  • Work within GitLab CI/CD and Argo CD delivery pipelines, debugging services with Grafana Loki logs.
  • Contributed to five integrations and products in my first year.

Away from the keyboard

I've been a competitive swimmer for thirteen years. I'm a 50m breaststroke sprinter, and I've qualified for Nationals in 2018 and every year from 2023 to 2026, including the Aquatics GB Championships. At Warwick I reached the BUCS A final with the university relay team. I write my own periodised training programmes, which is what led to building Impulse.
