Barry Hennessy

I help software teams discover requirements for tricky technical problems, design architectural solutions and develop them into reliable software. My experience has ranged from designing the architecture for, and building, high performance microservices in startups to leading and mentoring a team to develop payment systems for a billion dollar international firm. I'm keen to design simple scalable solutions for complex technical projects and to work with teams to deliver high quality solutions. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need backend services designed, developed and deployed. Functional. Reliable. Simple. Performant. Those are my watch-words, in order.
