Software development

Michael started his career as a software engineer working on major projects with million+ LOC. As his career has moved into test and leadership, software development reduced considerably but never quite disappeared. Through Compute Thing Ltd the balance of work has shifted back to more hands-on software engineering practices.

Python software development

Michael started developing Python scripts to analyse logs related to testing and customer support issue analysis. This has expanded to projects of 10000+ lines of code, making use of threading, multiprocessing, introspection, with interfaces to a wide variety of APIs, devices and network objects.

Product software development

Prior to moving into software testing and software test management Michael gained strong experience in firmware development, Michael developed realtime embedded software in C, a variety of assembly languages, and other high-level languages. The work included 2-way radio firmware, real-time fault tolerant OS development, and some PC application development.

Scripting and CI

Michael has continually developed Unix/Linux scripts as small tools, data analysis, document conversion and CI.

Architecture and Software System Design

When Michael has worked in roles he has continued to make major contributions in software architecture, product design, and software development environments.
