Alex Reid
Software Developer
Who Am I ?
Hi ! I’m Alex Reid, a Smart Home enthousiast who’s always looking to new electronics or softwares to tackle. I live near Quebec City, Canada, which also means that my main language is French.
But the most important is my family. My better half and I are the lucky parents of 3 young kids, that you might meet here and there on that website… I guess that they’ll continuously bring new project ideas… Either by themselves or by the problems they’ll cause. It’s part of the game, Eh !
Experience
I’ve started my journey playing with hardware to become a Alarm System Tech by doing an 18 months technical course to be certified. This is what sparkled the desire to learn more about the low level electronic.
So then I went to colledge and completed a 3 years techinical program in Computer Engineering Technology where I learn to design PCBs, programming of embedded IC and robotics.
I ended my “scholar” journey learning more advanced stuff in University, but this time, it was focused in software.
In 2013, I started to work for a tech company, where I played a lot of different roles, always looking to fix issues and learn more. So I’ve been a Tech, a Consultant, a Developer, a Team Leader, a Product Owner.
And now, since few years, I’m acting as a Software Developer into an R&D Team, where the projects always evolve and bring new challenges.
What Else ?
On the personal side, I became a fan of hiking and love to go camping with my family. You’ll probably see our camper in some projects !
I hope you’ll like the projects and ideas I share here,
Enjoy !
Alex Reid
