Ewan Mcrobert is a software engineer with 10 years’ experience building and maintaining web applications across PHP/Laravel and LAMP stacks, now combining that practical background with postgraduate research in computer vision for livestock farming. He currently supports C++ teaching at the University of Strathclyde while pursuing an MS and PhD focused on applied ML and deep learning, expected 2025. Ewan has shipped production integrations (Salesforce, DPD, Trustpilot), refactored certificate generation to interfaces for maintainability, and fixed tricky bugs in open-source SuiteCRM around inline editing and session handling. Comfortable across back-end, front-end and API work, he prioritises SOLID design and pragmatic automation to reduce manual effort. Based in Greater Glasgow, he isn’t seeking new roles but is open to academic and technical collaborations that bridge research and production systems. An uncommon blend: long-term commercial engineering chops paired with hands-on research applying computer vision to real-world agricultural problems.
