Dear Hiring Manager,
As a technologist, I’ve always been interested in utilising technology to analyse and solve problems in innovative ways. I’ve always found myself drawn to companies that try to create new markets and challenge traditional thinking. For example, I worked at SimplyGiving which was an online giving platform that sought to bring peer-to-peer fundraising and social lending to south east Asia. Having built the solution from the ground up and listened to the market, we managed to bring online fundraising to many organisations that just wouldn’t have had access to a global community without it.
There is a significant amount of interest globally in digitization, automation and engagement and I’ve been bringing this to the forefront of projects that I’ve worked on. Recently, I developed a product called MainPlayer that is a performance monitoring and gamification platform. It seeks to motivate staff, but also just as importantly alleviate a significant amount of managerial burden by automating monitoring and reporting tasks. We conducted a field study using MainPlayer and reported a 71% productivity gain.
Finally, my most recent role has been as CTO of Feeders, where I took concept to fully fledged MVP. The MVP has been integral to the funding pitch for the company, along with technology roadmap and provision patent that I developed.
I know that I could be an asset to an organization that values professionalism and personnel skilled in developing sophisticated and elegant solutions.
