Electrician & Elevator Service Technician

2011 — 2023

Electrical & elevator industry

Diagnosing faults under pressure, working to strict safety standards, and communicating with clients on site.

  • Systematic fault-finding on complex electromechanical systems — the same debugging instinct I bring to software
  • Diagnosed and repaired faults in a wide range of systems
  • Accountable for time and safety-critical work, often working solo
  • Worked with large clients including Westfield and NSW Health

About

I spent 13 years as an electrician and elevator service technician before making the change to pursue my passion in tech. My background helped me develop the skills to debug systems systematically, respect safety-critical work, and communicate clearly with non-technical people.

Since the switch I've worked two remote contract roles, working in agile teams, building web applications and developing core products. Working remotely across time zones has built my skills in working autonomously and communicating clearly with my team.
