About Me

Passionate about craft and scale

I’m Ernest — a Senior Software Engineer with over 8 years of experience building high-performance, accessible web applications. I’m currently at Sky, working on NowTV and Peacock — streaming platforms used by millions of users across web and TV devices.

My career has taken me from SaaS platforms in the Care and Education sector at OLM Systems, through consultancy work at AND Digital where I contributed to the launch of Sky Glass, to large-scale consumer product engineering at Sky.

I care deeply about frontend architecture, accessibility, and developer experience. I believe the best software is built by engineers who take pride in their craft — writing clean, maintainable code that lasts.

I’m based in London, UK and am currently open to new senior and lead engineering opportunities.

Beyond the Code

The person behind the engineer

Outside of work I’m passionate about staying active, learning continuously, and building things that matter. I believe the best engineers bring their whole selves to their work — curiosity, discipline, and a genuine care for the people using what they build.

I’m originally from Ghana and have called London home for many years. That journey has given me a deep appreciation for diverse perspectives and the value of adaptability — both in life and in software.

I'm currently on a path toward Software Architecture — deepening my understanding of distributed systems, system design, and technical leadership.
