Senior🎓
Top SchoolJacques Olivier is a Senior Software Engineer with six years of hands-on experience delivering full-stack solutions across .NET, React and modern JS frameworks, currently based in Auckland. He specializes in Clean Architecture, DDD, CQRS and SOLID-driven systems, and has a proven track record migrating legacy ASP.NET apps to .NET 8 and dramatically improving performance (Elasticsearch queries from minutes to milliseconds). Jacques has built end-to-end products including a booking system with custom scheduling, a bespoke live chat, and database redesigns from SQL to MongoDB, and has led teams as Tech Lead and interim Sprint lead. He combines pragmatic engineering with R&D curiosity—often exploring new frameworks and containerization in his spare time—and values simple solutions to complex problems. Comfortable across cloud, testing and automation tooling (Azure Functions, Service Bus, EF, unit/UI tests), he bridges backend, frontend and DBA responsibilities to ship resilient systems. Outside work he channels the same persistence into surfing and hiking, which he credits for creative problem-solving.
