I work in NPG which maintains the tools and pipelines that extract and analyse data from the sequencing machines as well as performing various ad hoc tasks requrested by customers. I have helped to maintain and develop tools in perl, python, C and go, as well as building and maintaining the ci we use for building the conda packages that we rely(ed) on for our production pipelines. Most of my work on this is in my work github.

I have also added code to our Illumina and PacBio pipelines which provides iRODS (data storage) data paths in the Multi-Lims Warehouse (MLWH) making it easier to find the data that a person is looking for.

I provided information and guidance for students (the 2020-21 cohort of MSc Bioinformatics students, i.e. the cohort after mine) during practical sessions, helping them to consolidate the information that they had gained during their lectures.

I also marked coursework that the students had written, providing fixed versions of their code where necessary, and returned those marks to the lecturer for moderation.

I was employed as the bar manager, looking after the bar and restaurant, as well as opening and closing the pub. I also ordered beer and wine, from suppliers, at my own discretion.

During the time that the owner was on holiday, I was in charge of staff hours and wages.

I conducted research into the effectiveness of using a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) as a template to deposit microfilaments of gold for use in sensing applications.

I performed many different roles, including assembly, calibration and testing of precision ion gauge controllers required in industries that use ultra-high vacuums, as well as packing units, interacting with suppliers, etc.

The more technical side of the work gave me experience with electronics engineering, as well as software development for use in and outside the company.

I located and transferred paper copies of confidential information onto the health board's computer system.
