Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBrendan Meade is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience designing and delivering complex Web, Mobile, Cloud and Embedded systems across consumer electronics and broadcast platforms. He blends front-end and full-stack expertise (React, Angular, ES6/TypeScript, Node.js) with embedded/STB, DRM and VOD domain knowledge, having led architecture and deployments for large European broadcast networks. Brendan has a track record of shipping hardware-centric JavaScript solutions and performance-driven frameworks, moving between startup teams and enterprise consulting roles where integration and operational scale mattered. Comfortable across cloud (AWS), Linux and big-data contexts, he pairs hands-on coding with domain-driven architecture and security-aware engineering. Based in Cambridge and originally from New Zealand, he brings a designer’s background (BDes Visual Communications) that informs pragmatic, user-focused technical decisions. A less obvious strength is his longevity translating interactive design sensibilities into robust embedded and broadcast software—bridging UX and low-level system constraints.
