Summary
James Kyte is a pragmatic software programmer with 11 years of experience building and maintaining web applications and DevOps tooling across financial services, cybersecurity, and business assurance. Currently at LRQA (formerly Nettitude), he blends hands-on C#, .NET and Python development with containerized deployment and CI/CD expertise, regularly working with Docker, Azure, Kubernetes, and modern front-end stacks like TypeScript and React. He has a track record of shipping experimental research prototypes and client-facing products, and routinely diagnoses and fixes systems he didn’t originally build—demonstrating strong cross-team communication up to C-suite level. Conscientious and self-directed, he pairs persistence with a willingness to own end-to-end solutions, from SSL-hosted personal projects to enterprise-grade integrations. An appetite for security tooling and low-level experimentation (Ghidra, GDB, assembly) hints at deeper curiosity beyond his day-to-day stack.
