👋 Hi, I'm David
I'm a technologist based in London. I am interested in projects that demonstrate an alternate vision for technology; a vision that centres and empowers everyday people rather than large corporations and the ultra-rich.
Work
I currently work 4 days a week as an Engineering Manager at Overleaf and am also a fellowship candidate in Political Technology at Newspeak House. You can learn more about me and the rest of the fellowship cohort here.
Past Projects
Some past projects of mine that you can find out about online:
- Leading a project to redesign the UI for the Overleaf Editor which is used by millions of researchers every month.
- Technical leadership for a project to deduplicate datasets to increase vaccination coverage rates in Pakistan.
- I was the primary developer for the first version of BBC Music Memories
Freelance Work
I am available for a small amount of freelance work. If you have work that sounds like any of the options below, then I might be able to help you out:
- Software development, specialising in frontend development using react
- Technical project management
- Scoping your technology project
- Mentoring and providing guidance to your in-house technologists
Message me on LinkedIn, if you think I could help your organisation.
Writing
Check out my blog! I write about the politics of technology, tabletop gaming, self-expression and anything else on my mind.
