Top SchoolJohn Montgomery is a Senior Software Engineer based in Brighton with 16 years of experience building scalable back-end systems in Java, Python and C/C++.

Comfortable across web stacks and Django as well as low-level integration (USB HID via ctypes), he combines applied AI interests—evident from a BSc in Mathematics & AI and an MSc in Advanced Computer Science—with practical evolutionary-algorithms experience. Known for navigating complex migrations (Postgres to Solr) and keeping dual systems in sync, he brings a pragmatic balance of systems-level thinking and delivery-focused engineering.
