Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdam Drakeford is a Staff Software Engineer based in Dublin with 11 years of hands-on experience building web and mobile applications across startups and large teams. He combines strong Python expertise—especially with asynchronous networking via Twisted—and experience with ORMs and AWS libraries, with practical iOS and Android development from his indie game studio days. Progressing from co-founding Glass Robot Studios to senior and staff engineering roles at Tenable, Zalando, and others, he brings both entrepreneurial initiative and mature delivery discipline. Adam is comfortable spanning frontend and backend concerns, shipping production systems and games alike, and mentoring peers through complex integrations. A practical tinkerer at heart, he’s as likely to prototype a game mechanic as he is to optimize a distributed service.
