Andy Chambers is a senior software engineer with 18 years' experience building high-throughput, production-grade systems for startups and multinationals across healthcare, ad-tech, finance and internet services. He blends deep expertise in databases, Kafka and JVM/Clojure ecosystems with practical web skills (Ruby, JavaScript/CSS) to deliver reliable, scalable pipelines and services. At Hudl Statsbomb he designed a domain-specific "neolang" for data enrichment and built an elastic Kafka/Redshift-backed service that processes thousands of games per second and auto-publishes documentation to customers. He has a track record of shipping developer-facing tooling and open-source frameworks (notably jackdaw-inspired Kafka tooling) and has presented those techniques to communities like re:Clojure and Confluent. Equally comfortable leading small teams or acting as a drop-in senior engineer through his consultancy, he focuses on pragmatic, testable designs that simplify operational complexity. Based in Montrose, Scotland, he pairs an MSc in IT and an MA in Economics with a knack for turning domain knowledge into programmable transformations.
