Hey folks! You've met Annette our Head of Product, and nearly everyone from Tech ( Alex Price | Thomas | LukeH ), so to round out the team we're introducing Cass! You can check out the rest of the team posts here.

What is your role at Just About?

Senior Software Engineer. I'm involved with both the backend and frontend of the platform. Currently my focus lies on building the upcoming Just About Discord Bot, JustABot!.

Why did you join JA, and where did you work before?

Previously I had worked with Alex Price (Just About's CTO) at Ecologi for around two years, building a lot of the payments processing there. Then one day he messaged about a startup he had joined and was hiring for - he's a great person to work with and, feeling like I wanted something new, I went for it!

How did you get started in this industry?

I've been programming since I was a teenager. I started out writing little websites, then onto games with Lua and programming microcontrollers with Assembly. I then went to university for Electronic Engineering, but found out that I was more interested in the programming aspect of the course and so pivoted into software. That was about five years ago, and I've been working at startups exclusively ever since.

Share a hobby you currently have.

Outside of work I'm interested in motorbikes and bodybuilding. I'm a big fan of high-intensity, low-volume training.
