Edward Dennis
Software Engineer
I build exceptional human-centred digital experiences.
I'm a software engineer passionate about building high-performance, pixel-perfect web applications that blend elegant design with robust engineering.
My favourite work sits at the intersection of technology and real-world impact - where innovation translates into meaningful solutions. Currently, I’m part of EY's Digital Engineering team, helping clients tackle complex challenges and deliver results that matter through thoughtful, user-focused engineering.
I studied Sociology (with Specialism in Technologies and Markets) at the University of Warwick, which sparked my deep interest in the ethics and societal impacts of technology. I care about how innovation shapes communities and believe in building solutions that are not only technically robust, but also responsible and inclusive.
When I’m not coding, you’ll usually find me staying active — whether that’s at the gym, out for a run, or trying a new sport. I love to travel and explore new places, and I’m always up for an adventure or discovering a hidden gem in a city. I’m also a big believer in lifelong learning, so I’m constantly picking up new skills, reading, or diving into something I haven’t tried before.
