I'm Sam, this is my tech blog.
In my day job I am a Digital Leader and Technical Architect working in AI & Cloud. Outside of this I teach & train in Taekwon-do and DJ & train at F45 Gym.
My tech career started in the Dev side of DevOps and I have seen web technology evolve from basic HTML & Dreamweaver right up to modern day JS frameworks, globally distributed cloud services and AI fused automation.
I started out as a Webmaster for Sony Playstation before going off backpacking & returning to complete a Computer Science degree.
A quick spell in front end web agency contract roles before settling into a perm full stack developer role. I then stepped up to leading dev teams as a Scrum master/DevOps manager/Tech lead across the Higher Ed & Public sector (Imperial, UCL, King's & NPL).
Next up was a fantastic role at GitHub (Microsoft) as a Solutions Engineer, helping EMEA customers onboard the enterprise product with interactive demos & PoCS.
I am currently in an amazing role with SoundCloud as a Senior Solutions Architect working in AI Music Intelligence across a platform with 400 million tracks!
I'm always learning new tech and hope to share useful experiences on this blog with whoever wants to read it...promise to keep it interesting!
Here's a couple of my DJ mixes below to keep the motivation and energy going!
