{% set company = site.companies[site.work.company] %} Hi, I’m Oliver. I'm a web developer, systems administrator, open source project creator and maintainer, community organiser, speaker and mentor based in Wales, UK.
I currently work for {{company.name}} as a {{ site.work.role }}. In my spare time, I'm sometimes available for freelance development or systems administration work.
I specialise in working with the Drupal content management system, Symfony framework, Linux operating systems and Ansible for server provisioning and application deployments.
I started learning and using Drupal in 2007, was previously employed by the Drupal Association to work on drupal.org, and am an Acquia certified Drupal 8 Grand Master.
I’m a big advocate for automated testing and test driven development, and am currently writing a book on automated testing with Drupal.
