My name is Conor, I am currently living in Carlow, which is where I completed my Bachelors in Computer Game Development. I worked here in Unum for six months as an Automation Test Engineer Intern before going back to college. Having fallen in love with the town, I chose to stay and commute to Dublin for my second position as a Gameplay Programmer at Viridian Software. I aspire to lead innovation in the future, but my current focus is on learning and improving my skills.

2024 - Gameplay Programmer

At my role at Viridian, I was in the process of working on the company's new IP, both developing games and developing their software. In the role I was primarily working in C#, however while I developed software for them I worked in a range of languages and libraries from python to C++, and developed unit test cases to go along with anything I wrote, maintaining 70% code coverage.

2023 - Automation Test Engineer

This was my first time in an office, and I became accustomed quite quickly. I learned invaluable skills here to do with Java and automation testing. The position introduced me to a new field, in which I learned the ropes and got very well integrated into the team. Not to mention the use of Agile, which was essential to a good workflow.

2021 - Traffic Controller

My time as a traffic controller tested my abilities to work in a tight knit team and deal with more privileged clients than that of Tesco. In this job I was in charge of directing customers of Kildare Village to the correct overflow car parks and setting up extra space if needed while communicating on radio with my team that were spread across the village.

2020 - Sales Assistant

During my time at Tesco, I operated checkouts and stacked shelves. Most of the jobs were repetitive, but it got me some real customer service experience. I learned how to properly deal with customers here and I regard the experience as invaluable.
