Hey Everyone! My name is Gerard Taylor and I am currently a Backend Software Engineer (Revenue) at Twitter! Previously, I was a High Performance Computing (HPC) Software Engineer at Intel. I have written a few mobile (iOS / Android) apps as well as a few Web Apps. I'm entrepreneurial at heart and building out my ideas. Also, in my spare time I post videos on my YouTube channel that cover a wide range of topics including Learn to Code videos as well as Career Advice for budding software engineers.
