Meet the Team: Russ - Code Ninja
Name: Russell Blakeman
Role: Software Developer / Code Ninja
How long have you worked at MPX? 1 year 4 months.
Describe your job in three words: Cerebral, Rewarding, Creative
Best thing about being part of the MPX Team? Feeling valued and a good team spirit.
What’s the coolest thing you’re working on right now? Not something I’m on currently but I have recently finished building a nice ticketing system for one of our customers.
What’s the most exciting part of your current job role? The most exciting part is getting to work on new features, being creative and making something completely new that will have an impact on the end user’s daily workflow.
What did you want to grow up to be when you were a kid? Rockstar.
Do you have any hidden talents or skills? What are they? Not really. I used to play the guitar when I was younger but haven’t played for years. I still play a bit of air guitar every now and then though.
Tell us something interesting about you? I haven’t always been a developer; my first job was in an aluminium recycling plant. It was a hot and dusty environment involving a lot of manual labour. The two roles couldn’t be further apart, however there is one similarity, we drank a lot of tea and coffee.
We’re building a company people love. A company that will stand the test of time. So we invest in, and surround ourselves with good people, and optimise our culture for long term job satisfaction and achievement.
