About me

The person helping you launch

I’m Eve Anderson, a developer with seventeen years of experience shipping and running real software. You’re not handing your app to a checklist. You’re getting a senior engineer who has built the kinds of systems you’re launching, knows where they tend to go wrong, and can help you put them right.

  • Seventeen years building software, from senior to principal engineer
  • Cloud applications built and run at scale
  • AI and machine learning systems
  • Scientific and research software
  • Degrees in both Computer Science and Physics

A bit more about me

I live in Tynemouth, where the Tyne meets the North Sea. It’s a good place to think: most of what I know about software has been worked out somewhere between the beach and a laptop.

I studied Computer Science at Warwick, then went back years later to take a Physics degree with the Open University and wrote a thesis on adiabatic quantum computation. In between I’ve spent seventeen years building software for a living, in startups, agencies and large companies. Scientific research code, cloud platforms that had to stay up, machine learning systems, and a lot of ordinary products with real customers on the other end. Different industries, and the same lesson every time about what breaks when real people arrive.

When I’m not working I play roller derby for Tyne & Fear. I’m number 8, Infinite Loop, and I’ve played for England. It’s a full-contact sport on roller skates, which is a useful thing to have in your week when the rest of your work happens sitting down.
