Kevin Farr

Senior software engineer @ Admiral Technologies

East of England, United Kingdom

I have experience in backend development, database design, mobile development, and a bit of frontend development too. I have strong fundamentals and work well in multi-threaded environments. I know that I will be a good fit with most teams and contribute to a relaxed and productive environment. I approach problems from the perspective of an end-user, and value improving UX over strictly following tasks. My greatest strength lies with .NET work where I know that I will be successful in future roles, but I do realize that this field is always changing and am willing to move to other aspects of development as needed. Ideally, I would like to work in teams or pairs rather than silos.
