Description

I am a senior software engineer with a PhD and over 20 years of experience in computer vision, image processing, and 3D visualisation. I specialise in C++ and the Qt framework, with deep expertise in OpenCV and the kind of high-performance, precise software that systems cannot afford to get wrong.

My background spans medical imaging, scientific simulation, and engineering software. I have built 3D visualisation and image-processing modules for commercial products, designed novel medical image algorithms (including 3D reconstruction from MRI and CT scans, and computer-aided detection systems), and helped bring software through CE and FDA medical approval. My work has been published in IEEE and international journals.

I currently develop and maintain 3D visualisation software for electronics cooling simulation at a major engineering software company. I am comfortable working alone or as part of a team, and I focus on quality, reliability, and clear results.

I am available for selected freelance and consulting projects in C++ development, computer vision and image processing, 3D visualisation, Qt-based desktop applications, and algorithm design. I also have working experience in JavaScript and React for frontend tasks.

United Kingdom
I am a Senior Software Engineer at Siemens Digital Industries Software, where I have been a core contributor to the company’s flagship electronics cooling simulation suite since February 2013. Over the course of my 13-year tenure, I have focused on the design, development, and optimization of high-performance desktop engineering applications. These tools are used globally by major aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, and semiconductor companies to model thermal behaviors, analyze fluid dynamics, and prevent hardware failure. My primary expertise lies at the intersection of modern C++ programming, complex desktop user interfaces (GUI) using the Qt framework, and high-performance 3D visualization systems.
