Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRaymond Luckhurst is a versatile software developer with four decades of engineering experience, recently transitioning from running his consultancy Scriptit Ltd to a semi-retired role while still actively contributing to open source and taking on select projects. He blends LAMP-stack web development, modern HTML5/CSS UI work and scripting with deep low-level expertise in firmware, device drivers, parsers and telecoms transport code. His background spans blue-chip clients and defence/telecoms vendors, delivering cross-platform client apps, UNIX server components and embedded systems using languages from Java and C++ to Perl, PHP and assembly. Raymond’s uncommon combination of document-generation/PostScript mastery and hands-on hardware interfacing complements his software skill set and makes him well suited to niche, low-level or automation challenges. Based in Torquay, UK, he pairs an engineering degree with decades of practical systems design and a lifelong creative streak as an accomplished amateur pianist and church organist.
