Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolStephan Mckillen is a pragmatic IT specialist and software developer with over 10 years designing practical, low-cost automation and database solutions for small businesses. He has a long track record of turning manual workflows into fast, reliable systems—examples include reducing a 20-click task to a single barcode-driven action and cutting an eight-hour process to 1.5 hours by automating PDF catalogue generation. Comfortable across Windows servers, AD, SQL, MS Access and VB/.NET, he also manages on-site infrastructure and builds production systems for inventory, order allocation and invoicing. As founder of MYLE and longtime on-call IT lead for a nursery operation, he blends client-facing support with hands-on development and deployment. He emphasizes disciplined database design and maintainability (front-end/back-end split, naming conventions, thorough error handling and backups), a detail-driven approach informed by years of practical constraints. Despite dyslexia, he leverages pattern recognition and workflow thinking to create tools that deliver measurable time and cost savings.
