Corey Duffy

Hey, I'm Corey, and I've worked as a software engineer from the moment I left school (over a decade ago now), initially working full-time while studying for my degree.

Since then, I've worked across a range of companies, startups and scale-ups on back-end services, front-ends, automated testing, DevOps, DevSecOps, AI/LLMs and everything in-between.

What initially attracted me to software development was the idea of being able to create and build whatever I could think of. What has kept me engaged with software development is the sense of honing a craft.

Across all of my interests, be it software engineering, running or strength-training, I love the sense of progression. I love the ability to learn, adapt and improve, and see those improvements over time.

In this space, there is always more to learn, there are always ways to grow.

Anything I write here is in pursuit of that improvement. It's my way of learning, re-learning or confirming what I already know.

I definitely don't have all the answers, but (hopefully, at least) I'm always improving, and hopefully there's something useful here for others too.
