About

Hey ๐Ÿ‘‹ Iโ€™m Jack Bishop, a UK-based software engineering leader.

I design, build and lead software with a bias for reliable systems and effective teams.

This site is my working notebook: practical notes, projects, experiments, and lessons Iโ€™d share with an engineering team.

Away from the keyboard, Iโ€™m usually training for a triathlon or taking photos, and I have a soft spot for fast machines ๐ŸŽ๏ธ๐Ÿš€.

Portrait of Jack Bishop

Engineering background

I started my career through an Aerospace Software Engineering Degree Apprenticeship, combining study at the University of Central Lancashire with industry experience.

Since then, my work has spanned hands-on software engineering, technical architecture, engineering leadership, and mentoring. Today, I lead software teams, shape technical decisions, and help engineers deliver reliable systems without unnecessary complexity.

Iโ€™m professionally registered as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng) and am a Member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (MIET).

In 2022, UCLan recognised my engineering and software career with an Alumni Achievement Award.

How I work

Start small. Ship early. Learn fast.
Simple tools, clear decisions, tight feedback loops, and reliability over cleverness.
