Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Adams is a Senior Consultant and Full Stack Tech Lead with 14 years of software engineering experience, currently delivering secure, full-stack solutions for a large UK public-sector client at Accenture. He combines a strong backend pedigree in .NET and Java with modern frontend work in TypeScript/React and infrastructure-as-code for AWS, alongside DevOps pipelines using GitHub Actions and runners. Previously a technical lead at ResearchSpace, he shepherded a mission-critical ELN product from concept to production, blending hands-on coding, team leadership, and customer-facing deployment expertise. His background in molecular biology and bioinformatics gives him uncommon domain insight for life-science and research-focused software, and he has practical experience migrating monoliths to microservices and modernizing Java stacks. Comfortable across cloud, CI/CD and security best practices, he is equally at home scripting automation in Go/Python or designing resilient serverless and containerized architectures. Based in the Greater Edinburgh area, he brings a pragmatic, research-informed approach to building maintainable, secure systems at scale.
