Personal

I'm a 0 year old technology fanatic, with a passion for architecturally designing functional systems and automation. Despite no longer professionally working as a developer, I'm still very much a developer at heart and try to stay as hands-on as possible, with activities like helping out the development teams with pair programming, code review and prototyping designs in physical code whenever I have time to spare.

I conduct myself in a professional manner and am used to explaining very technical concepts both at a high level to non-technical individuals and in great detail to technical people.

When I'm not working, or with friends or family, I'm usually playing chess (or other strategic games), scrolling through StackOverflow or watching videos to try and broaden my knowledge in a variety of disciplines, mostly technology, history and military warfare, though this is forever expanding due to the extensive collection YouTube has to offer.

I have a real passion for all areas of technology, and outside of work I like to tinker with various projects, from setting up automated python scripts on raspberry pis to building games in Unity.

I live in South East Essex, close to a main trainline, so ideally looking for positions within East / Central London, though am willing to travel across London for the right role.

Hardware and Building Tools Ltd.

Scenario

Once a single store supplying building tools to the local tradesmen, H&BT has since had a surge of growth and now operates 5 stores across the surrounding counties, each with their own eCommerce platform.

Historically the IT team at H&BT have been providing these eCommerce platforms via a core repository, providing roughly 70% of the required functionality, with remaining work being bespoke to the client.

A technological investment firm have recently invested a great sum of captial in H&BT with views to greatly expand the number of stores and take the company across the whole country, however there's concern raised in the investment paper that the current means of onboarding won't be sufficient to meet the investor's requirements.

Business Objectives

Proposal

After technical investigation, it is suggested that the delay in onboarding, along with the increase in story point estimates for new feature tickets are as a direct result of the interdependent, modular structure of the monolithic codebase.

As a modern alternative to a monolithic architectural design pattern, both serverless and microservice patterns have been considered, however upon consulting with the Head of Engineering it has been suggested that the development squads would currently be better suited to a coding style that favoured the existence of servers.

As a result of these considerations, it is recommended that H&BT rebuild their currently codebase and applicational estate in a microservice design pattern, resolving the following challenges:
