Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Grant is a Senior Integration Engineer with over a decade of experience building and stabilizing high-performance, distributed publishing systems, most recently helping the Financial Times connect newspaper and online workflows across London and New York. He specializes in integration, Apache and application webservers, release/configuration management, and rapid incident response—skills honed while handling traffic surges, migrations and security events at a top-1000 website. Known for pragmatic problem solving, he returns as a contractor to accelerate projects requiring SVN setup, networking and deployment support across FT products like Presscuttings and AdsTools. Beyond corporate work he spent three years cycling 48,000 km while running and maintaining WordPress-based travel resources, which sharpened his ability to deliver under unreliable connectivity and limited tooling. Based in The Hague and grounded in a B.Sc. in Math, Computer Science and Physics, he combines systems-level engineering with hands-on operations and a knack for smoothing cross-team integrations. An understated strength is his experience adapting legacy stacks and bespoke systems into coherent release and publishing pipelines for global audiences.
