I consider myself to be a polyglot programmer with various interests. If I'm unfamiliar with a language and its technlogies (frameworks, libraries etc), I will teach myself these to get a project done, something I've had to do in and outside of industry. I'm always intrigued by using a different language to develop a project I've already completed. This can be a good experiement or a bad one; the below example I feel is a good on. For example, the project Systems Monitor similar to htop was developed in Modern C++. Could there be an advantage in writing this application in Rust or Golang, given these are both System Level languages? Anyway, what do I usually do in the workplace? Read about that below.

My past experience includes working in the Oil & Gas Industry and Retail Sector (BI & HR Analytics), utilising a wide range of technologies, allowing Stakeholders to make informed business decisions. My experience in these industries has seen me work on a wide range of projects. For example, from developing shell scripts to load, process and unload large Seismic data sets, to using Machine Learning to try and understand employee absence rates for Tesco and reduce the £2million pa financial loss.

• 🌱 I’m currently working on:

  • Bash-Hacks. A folder of mini Bash scripts which perform all manner of automation tasks. Working on this now and then so I'll always be adding to it when I'm not doing something more substantial.

• Developing a Multithreaded 2D Chanel Flow Solver for the Navier-Stokes Equations, using the Finite Difference Method and the Successive Over-Relaxation Method, in a variety of languages: e.g. C, C++, & Fortran. Will use the OpenMP API for Multithreading.
• Developing a Linear & Non-Linear Covective Heat Flow Solver, in C++, using the Finite Element Method and solved via the Successive Over-Relaxation Method
• Employing Fortran and the GPU to build a Linear/Non-Linear Shallow Water Equation Solver.
• Physics-Informed Machine Learning. Applying this to Inverse Problems in Geophysics. E.g. Seismic tomography and Geomagnetism.
• Developing a Compiler using the LLVM Project.
• Developing a Compiler in C/C++.
• Developing a Multithreaded Linux Kernel.
• Developing an Interpreter &/or Compiler in Go.
• Deloping a basic Operating System in C.
• Learning the SYCL Programming Model and creating some basic applications with it.
• Creating a simple Crypto Trading Platform in C++.
• Creating a Cryptocurrency Trading Bot with a User Interface in Python.
• Creating a simple Trading Bot in Java. I've never worked with Java and I've always been put off by it; Might be a good time to see why!
• Creating a basic Online Oil & Gas Data Management System called OGManager, developed in Golang.
• Could a Physics Game Engine be used for Scientific Simulation/Modelling?
• Writing a solver for the (Discrete) Fast Fourier Transform using OpenCL. I studied Geophyics so I'm naturally interested in applications of Signal Processing.
• GPU Programming and Fluid Dynamics: Taking a look at the SYCL Framework and using it to develop a solver.

• C.
• Modern C++.
• Fortran.
• MATLAB.
• Data Structures & Algorithms.
• Bash Scripting.
• High Performance Computing: I love seeing how HPC can help with Scientific/Simulation problems. I'm keen to start learning about the SYCL framework too.
• Computational Science. Like my repo's show, I love developing Numerical Algorithms to solve Scientific and Engineering Problems.
• Systems Programming: I love knowing how things work under the hood. E.g. Compilers and Operating Systems (Linux).
• Data Science.
• Data Engineering.
• Scientific Programming: Modelling and Simulation of problems in Fluid Dynamics & the Physical Sciences.
• Applied Mathematics: E.g. Numerical Analysis, Linear Algebra, Ordinary/Partial Differential Equations and (Computational) Fluid Dyanamics.

Take a look at these repositories; some of my applications might interest you and might help you out in some way. Or you might look at them and think "Why on Earth has he done it that way, when he could have done it this way!". If thats the case, please let me know as I'm always looking to better myself and my applications.
