About

Hi! I’m Doug Nelson - a Software Engineer based in the UK!

Personal Life!

Archery, board games, gaming and when I have the strength, tinkering on whatever computing projects can catch my interest.

Work Life!

Cloudflare - August 2024 - Now

Working on the Cloudflare Images platform

Shopify - April 2022 - May 2023

Worked on internal tooling related to internal service discovery (in the human sense rather than in the microservice sense)

Silktide - April 2014 - March 2022

Worked on… many many things, but simplified my job involved fixing our systems to be able to scale - something that wasn’t as easy as it perhaps sounds

Roscom - Feb 2011 - April 2014

Most of my time was spent converting a Visual Basic 6 application thin-client to be web browser based… exactly as weird and wonderful as it sounds.
