Top SchoolJamie Haywood is a Senior Software Engineer with eight years of experience building user-focused, scalable web platforms across fintech, telecoms, and computer vision startups. He combines a BSc in Anthropology with deep technical expertise to design humane, accessible products—having led frontend architecture at Vodafone, built real-time CV streaming at Captur, and scaled an AI-backed collateral optimisation platform at Cassini. Comfortable across the stack, he has delivered high-performance visualisations, type-safe API tooling, and production integrations with enterprise systems like Aladdin and Bloomberg. Jamie has a track record of founding and leading teams, modernising component libraries and CI/CD pipelines, and shipping features with measurable social impact such as Open Banking tariffs and accessibility upgrades. Now based in Sydney, he brings startup grit and large-enterprise discipline to solve complex data-rich problems with a human-centred lens. An unexpected strength is his anthropology background, which he deliberately applies to translate user needs into pragmatic technical solutions.
