He holds a Double 1st in Computer Science from St John’s College, Cambridge, where his final-year project produced a privacy-aware Go middleware for microservices using SQL. Focused on cloud computing, system design and scalable distributed architectures, Jacob combines hands-on implementation with architectural leadership across large banking systems.
