Summary
David Dupplaw is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience delivering full-stack, service-oriented systems using Java, Kotlin and modern JavaScript, with a strong commitment to TDD and pair programming. He combines industrial practice at companies like Yunex Traffic, Siemens and Conduent with an academic pedigree—PhD from the University of Southampton—and a history of research-driven web and semantic-web work (RDF) applied to real products. He has led backend and tech‑lead efforts for ML-driven dialogue systems and designed in-house UI widget frameworks, spanning DevOps (AWS, Docker, Jenkins) to databases and caching (MySQL, Redis). Comfortable moving between research and production, he brings an analytical approach born of academic projects to pragmatic engineering challenges in traffic and enterprise systems. An under-the-radar strength is his long-term fluency in both legacy and modern stacks, making him effective at integrating new service architectures into complex, existing environments.
