Currently working as a software engineer for Puppet.

Award-winning Computer Science graduate with experience as a developer, a support engineer, a tester and a shelf stacker! But right now I'm fascinated by efficiency and love to optimise feedback systems to be quicker, offer more clarity, as well as proving more reliable.

Enjoy the variety that working as a tester provides most of all. In the same day I can find myself head down in an IDE, having high-level discussions about the effectiveness of an upcoming feature to address business needs and looking over analytics to see where we should focus our testing efforts.

I like to learn while helping others and do so by co-organising the NI Testers meetup as well as helping out at Code Club Holywood. You can find me on twitter @Shicky4 or my blog www.nicholaspshaw.com
