He/Him/Jim

I'm a Core Data Engineer at Optima Partners, Edinburgh.

The best thing at work is seeing my colleagues thrive.

I'm a social media volunteer for the Edinburgh PostgreSQL meetups!

I used to be a collaborator on the lambdr R package. lambdr is an R runtime for AWS Lambda, making it possible to deploy R code as containerised Lambda functions.
