My name is Dónal. I’m a software developer, bread baker and general dabbler based in Dublin, Ireland. I studied music for my undergrad, then moved to computer science, ending up with an MSc in Computing with a specialism in AI from Imperial College London.
I’m particularly interested in the role of software in the Circular Economy.
I have worked as Engineering Team Lead at FoodCloud, Senior Platform Engineer and Team lead at Nitro, for Apple as a software engineer on Maps, for Caffeinehit Ltd as the lead backend developer for the Pin Drop and for Paddy Power Plc as a quants developer. I was also part of the Dublin Design Collective with whom I took part in the city-wide, interactive exhibitions Helsinki Tagged! and Dublin Tagged!.
