Summary
Nev Delap is an experienced analytics and software engineer based in Brisbane with 11 years of recent senior engineering and leadership experience and a programming career stretching back to the early 2000s. He blends analytics engineering (dbt, Snowflake, Postgres, SQL) with pragmatic Python development and CI/CD automation, sitting between analysts, business users and core data engineers to raise software engineering maturity. Nev has led cross-functional teams, implemented DevOps and release transformations, and shipped products across Go, PHP, C#, and JavaScript stacks while working primarily on Linux. He is a hands-on mentor and prolific technical writer who values clear communication and documentation as much as code. Outside day-to-day work he follows low-level language and tooling developments (Mojo, Codon, Python internals) and has a long history of introducing testing and engineering best practices in legacy environments.
