Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAshley Snowdon is a Chief Software Architect with 13 years of hands-on experience designing and delivering web and systems solutions across satellite broadband ISPs, stock brokers, and debt collection sectors. He blends deep full-stack development (PHP, Ruby) with Linux systems administration and cloud migrations, having led migrations to Rackspace and AWS and introduced CI/CD and Git workflows at enterprise scale. Known for pragmatic architecture and strong communication, he has a track record of reducing downtime during complex “always-on” migrations and enabling cross-department testing and automated deployments. As a technical lead he drives unit testing, continuous integration, and developer tooling while mentoring engineers and shaping hiring decisions. He’s equally comfortable building production clusters and tuning Apache, database and mail servers as he is proposing new technologies that deliver measurable business value. Based in the UK, Ashley pairs a logical, problem-solving approach with a proven ability to take projects from legacy refactor to maintainable, automated release pipelines.
