About me

Builder. Problem solver.
First-class grad.

Hi, I'm James — a software engineer from Sheffield who just graduated with a First Class BEng in Software Engineering from Sheffield Hallam University in 2026.

I love building things that solve real problems. From an allergy scanner on the App Store to Atlas, an eco-friendly travel app that makes public transport the obvious choice, my work focuses on apps people actually reach for.

I've shipped production Flutter apps to iOS, built desktop tooling in C# and WPF for a real client, and built an end-to-end travel optimisation system for my final year project.

I'm actively looking for graduate software engineering roles where I can keep building things that matter.

🌿

Atlas

Type in where you want to go and Atlas finds the best way to get there on public transport — with live arrival times, multiple route options, and a CO₂ comparison against driving. Built to make the sustainable choice the obvious one.
