Summary
Thomas Bloor is a Senior Software Engineer with 13 years of hands-on experience spanning mobile app development, embedded microcontroller work, and hardware design. Currently at Codethink after a year at Thales, he brings a practical blend of software and electronics know-how from building Arduino projects to designing parts on his self-built 3D printer. He progressed from intern to full-time app developer at Shadowcat Systems, shipping Android and iOS work alongside Perl tooling, demonstrating adaptability across stacks. Based in Stockport, he pairs a Cert.HE in Electronic Engineering with real-world CNC and maker skills, often fabricating bespoke mounts and accessories for his projects. Outside of work he’s a prolific hobbyist and content creator—“too many projects, not enough time”—which fuels continual learning and a knack for pragmatic problem solving.
