Harry Muter.
I build websites and stuff.
Technologies and Tools
Some say a bad workman blames their tools, but in this industry making sure you utilise the correct tools and use them to their fullest potential is vital if you want to design and build quality software.
From my academic and professional experiences, these are the languages, technologies and tools that I have built a proficieny with. Of course there are a few more that I hope to add, but I believe this list gives me a functional and well-rounded skillset that allow me to contribute positively to any development project.
I have developed these proficiencies from my work on many projects, primarily in the role of a front-end / full-stack developer, but also from my experiences working alongside UX designers and researchers.
Experience

I left my PhD programme in 2021 after gaining a role as a Technical Product Analyst at Cambridge University Press & Assessment. At the Press I predominantly work alongside projects, ensuring our technical solutions integrate with our exisiting capabilities / tech stack. I am very excited to be working at a firm with such a rich history, and a great mission & ethos. Whilst here I hope to further extend my project management capabilities and gain valuable industry experience.

In 2020, I began studying toward a PhD in Business & Management at the University of East Anglia, with a focus on the applicaiton of big data for performance management in service organisations. Although I very much enjoyed my time here, I left in 2021 after deciding to continue the pursuit of a career in industry.

Upon finishing my Master’s degree I gained a position as a developer at the insurance firm Aviva. The team I was part of is responsible for Aviva’s commercial rating algorithms, which manages both underwriting risk acceptance and the pricing of insurance policies. Whilst there I learnt the nuances of working within a global organisation, and gained experience with large-scale unit and integration testing. I left Aviva in September 2020 to pursue my PhD in Business & Management.
MSc - Knowledge Discovery and Datamining
University of East AngliaSep 2017 - Sep 2018
When I graduated from my undergraduate studies I wanted to learn more about the field of data science and so subsequently enrolled on the MSc Knowledge Discovery and Datamining course at the University of East Anglia. This course allowed me to learn fundamental data science principles and add further to my understanding of information science. I graduated from this programme with Merit.
BSc - Business Information Systems
University of East AngliaSep 2014 - Jul 2017
My undergraduate course allowed me to pursue a degree that combined my interests in consumer behaviour and computer science. My studies gave me a comprehensive knowledge of both business processes and software engineering principles; of which there was a good mixture of theoretical and practical elements. I graduated from this course in July 2017 with First Class Honours.
