Graduate software engineer
I am a Software Engineering undergraduate at Swansea University, focused on machine learning, ethical AI, and practical web development. I am looking for a graduate role where I can apply strong programming, analytical, and problem-solving skills to real software challenges.
Seeking graduate software engineering roles from Summer 2026.
About
My background combines software engineering study, data analysis experience, technical support, and teaching. I have worked with Java, Python, C, C++, C#, HTML, CSS, Haskell, Ada, SQL, and modern development practices including version control, agile teamwork, test-driven development, API development, and data visualisation.
Selected work
Investigated reinforcement learning for ethical decision-making in autonomous driving using the CARLA simulator. A pre-trained driving model was extended and tested in pedestrian hazard and trolley-problem-style scenarios using PPO and a custom reward structure. The project found that while the model improved in simpler cases, it struggled with complex ethical choices, highlighting the limits of reward-based learning for human-like moral judgement.
Built a solo Unity coursework project centred on a wave fighter mechanic, designing the core gameplay loop around surviving enemy waves, managing player interactions, and iterating on challenge, pacing, and responsiveness.
Modified 3D model assets using Blender and Unity for deployment in VRChat, including avatar setup, material adjustments, accessory integration, and texture changes using Clip Studio Paint and GIMP.
Replicated the classic Chips Challenge game as part of a group project using object-oriented programming in Java and agile processes. Contributed new features, worked with another group's code, and fixed existing bugs.
