I work to build high quality software solutions with clients.
Cloud Developer
DFDSNOV 2019
DEC 2021
I worked as part of a team developing a solution for monitoring and instructing autonomous vehicles working at DFDS locations in collaboration with other companies. The software solution comprised mainly of several .NET core microservices running in Kubernetes and communicated primarily via Kafka events, the team and I had a strong focus on using DDD techniques to establish bounded contexts and make use of a ubiquitous language across the project. As well as the backend part of the solution, I also contributed to the frontend monitoring page developed using React.
To facilitate demonstrations to stakeholders and to provide another option for testing the system, I developed an iOS app using SwiftUI and LocationKit that allowed me to simulate an autonomous vehicle operating in a given area - this provided both automatic position updates over SignalR as well as user defined actions.
As part of internal knowledge sharing activities I was actively involved in the developer book club, reading and discussing a number of books focused on software development. I also made several contributions to the internally developed, open-source library for working with Kafka events - Dafda.

Storytel/MofiboNOV 2017
OCT 2019
Originally working as a backend developer building microservices running in docker containers on Kubernetes on Google Cloud Platform. I developed several services in F# and C# - both HTTP APIs and services consuming Pub/Sub messages. Over time I moved into a more "full stack" role continuing to develop microservices in the backend, but also working on the iOS app (after teaching myself Swift) building functionality that made use of the new backend APIs (in Swift, using MVVM) and integrating it with some of the older parts of the codebase written in Objective C. As part of changing CI provider, I was extensively involved in improving the build automation for both backend services and the iOS app.
As I introduced F# to the tech stack, I also worked heavily with training and mentoring other developers - both to teach them a new programming language and a new approach to solving problems, but also helping to develop their existing skills. I was one of the co-creators of the dotnet template that allowed developers to get a new microservice up and running with standard configuration in either F# or C# with minimal effort. I also was a member of the API Standards group within the tech department that worked towards creating guidelines for how the API surface across many microservices should work.
Additionally, I was involved in several recruitment processes, including reviewing applications and running both social and technical interviews leading to several good hires.

Testimonials
Adam is a passionate and skilled developer, who always strives for learning new things and finding better ways of working. I've seen him being a great mentor to those less experienced, as well as being a quick learner himself and appreciating the feedback. Adam has a lot of empathy for his coworkers and he would be a great asset to any team!
Adam is a very experienced developer who is passionate about developing good quality software. At Storytel he was very engaged in recruiting and onboarding/mentoring new colleagues, active in the tech community (giving tech talks, writing blog posts) and he enriched our tech stack with new technologies like F#. He is a person with very high integrity and his contributions generally went well beyond what was expected of him.
Adam's unrelenting search for better ways to develop software has pushed the team to the bleeding edge of software development.
