Top SchoolAdam Probert is a Lead Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building data platforms, distributed systems, and developer-facing internal platforms while owning 24/7 live operations and incident resilience.

His background spans telecom-grade analytics, live game telemetry and Medallion-style BigQuery pipelines, plus robotics and computer-vision prototypes—he even maintains a personal project building a six-wheeled stair-climbing autonomous rover. Based in Cardiff, he describes himself as a tinkerer who pairs pragmatic engineering with stakeholder coaching to accelerate teams and improve developer experience.
