Senior🎓
Top SchoolConor Ward is a Senior Software Engineer based in Galway with six years' experience building scalable backend systems, currently contributing at Fidelity Investments. He brings deep Java and Spring expertise—having built a product from the ground up at SmartBear—and practical experience with Kafka, WebSocket, Docker, Kubernetes and GitHub Actions for CI/CD. Conor pairs strong testing discipline (JUnit, Mockito, PowerMock) with cloud and serverless know-how (AWS Lambda), and is comfortable across databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and scripting languages (Node.js, Python). His academic background is rigorous—an MS in Applied Software Engineering and a BSc in Mathematical Science, both with first-class honours—informing a methodical approach to problem solving. Colleagues rely on his troubleshooting and analytical strengths to stabilize complex integrations and streaming systems. He often bridges product and platform work, equally at home iterating on APIs and shepherding deployment automation.
