Senior🎓
Top SchoolIsaac Lambat is a Senior Software Engineer based in Lancaster, UK, with seven years of hands-on experience building and maintaining backend systems. He has progressed through multiple engineering roles at Couchbase, contributing to the well-known open-source Sync Gateway project where he focused on backend maintenance, authentication fixes, and testing improvements. Comfortable across more than ten languages including Java, Go, and JavaScript, he pairs pragmatic coding with strong version-control and attention-to-detail practices. His background as a technical consultant gave him real-world client-facing experience, Linux ops skills, and a habit of automating tedious tasks—like scraping and normalizing rental listings into usable data. Known for reliability and teamwork, he brings both production-grade engineering and a practical, service-oriented mindset to distributed systems work. He also holds a full clean driving licence, an unusual but useful detail for onsite client engagements in the region.
