Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPete H is a seasoned software engineer based in London with 14 years of hands-on experience building web and cloud management systems, primarily with Ruby on Rails, PHP and test-driven development. He has progressed from co-founding and migrating a startup platform to Rails through senior engineering roles to leading development teams at OnApp and Virtuozzo, and now continues crafting product code at Jim's Jams and Marmalades. Known humorously as a "monk of the Eastern Rails Orthodoxy," he combines deep Rails craftsmanship with practical leadership in small teams. His background in microbiology and early technical support work gives him a methodical, troubleshooting-oriented approach to complex systems and deployments. Reliable, pragmatic and curious, Pete thrives on migrating legacy stacks and delivering maintainable, well-tested software.
