Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Douglas is a Senior Software Engineer with 10 years’ experience designing and scaling distributed .NET systems, currently contributing at Mangopay from the Greater Bristol Area. He led development and technical direction of a web-based card payment terminal platform that grew to support thousands of terminals and over a million transactions per month. Deeply experienced in C#/.NET 6–7, multi-threading, persistent TCP device connections, and inter-service communication (REST, RabbitMQ, gRPC), he pairs pragmatic architecture with hands-on troubleshooting. Alex has worked across the stack—databases (MSSQL), service discovery (Consul), ELK monitoring, and Linux-hosted deployments—while guiding teams as a tech lead rather than a people manager. A First Class Computer Science graduate, he brings a disciplined TDD and automation mindset fostered early at Renishaw and Screwfix. Unusually for a payments engineer, he also lists biostatistics and teaching statistics with R among his interests, reflecting a taste for data-driven problem solving.
