John Coote

Hi, I'm John Coote. I am a Senior Backend Engineer and have been working with Ruby professionally since 2018, on Rails, on Sinatra and on and AWS Serverless.

I have worked in Fintech, Healthcare and Logistics. Before moving into software development, I was an Electrical Engineer.

I enjoy writing code that is performant and thouroughly tested.

I am a strong believer in writing code that is easy to understand. Refactoring, bugfixing and generally maintainability are all better if the code is clear

I love mentoring others, I think I'm pretty good at it. I enjoy lifting the performance, competency and confidence of the team I am working in, just as much as I take pride in my own individual achievements.
