Freelance Computer Programmer
I designed and implemented web-based search systems for a variety of clients, usually as a subcontractor for Flax. I completed stand-alone projects in their entirety as well as working as part of a team on larger projects. Most projects were implemented in Python, using the Xapian or Lucene search engines. I made significant contributions to a high level Python wrapper for Xapian; wrote an off-the-shelf open source search system from scratch; as well as many modules for text processing and tokenisation; web, database and file system crawling; indexing and search, as well as web front ends.
