Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCameron Simpson is a Senior Software Engineer and cleared Australian citizen with 26 years of IT experience, currently building and maintaining complex GIS and microservice applications at Leidos Australia. He combines hands-on full-stack development (Angular, Go, NodeJS, C#, .NET) with systems engineering and DevOps practices—designing CI/CD pipelines, Dockerised builds, and AWS workspaces to deliver production-ready software. Cameron has led and mentored engineering teams, owned people processes, and run V&V and release activities for mission-critical systems, often stepping into systems administration and incident response to resolve long-standing operational issues. Notable wins include dramatically improving ITSM email throughput and rescuing stalled legacy services, plus a PoC that automates meteorological/oceanographic data encoding and export. He enjoys solving logical, cross-disciplinary problems and frequently volunteers for broader project responsibilities, blending technical depth with strong documentation and stakeholder-facing communication. Based in Canberra with an ANU Software Engineering Honours degree and active security clearance, he is comfortable delivering both code and the operational practices that keep it reliable.
