Writer at Self-employed

Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Furber is a writer and developer with 12 years of experience who blends storytelling and software to create practical technical content and products. Based in Gauteng, South Africa, he built a commercial digital signage player deployed across major corporate customers and has long experience as a senior technology journalist and features editor. Since 2017 he has been self-employed, writing about code and building tools that help his writing workflow—bringing a practitioner’s perspective to editorial work. His background spans hands-on embedded development, research engagements (including a short stint at Discord), and content work for enterprise software clients. That mix of engineering and journalism gives him a knack for explaining complex technical systems in clear, usable terms. He’s equally comfortable shipping embedded systems for retail environments as he is crafting narratives that make technology accessible.
