Bio

Ainsley Clark

Hi, I'm Ainsley

I've always been a bit of a geek at heart. It all started off with a pair of DJ decks as a kid which led me to a Music Technology degree, and somewhere along the way turned into a career building software. I can truly say that I love what I do and I'm always excited about all things tech.

Engineering

Most of my time is spent writing Go at Just Eat Takeaway.com, leading platform architecture across teams and building tools and services that last.

Advocating

Giving back matters to me, whether that's speaking at conferences, contributing to open source or contributing to the Just Eat Go Guild to raise engineering standards across teams.

Mentoring

I've always loved investing in people and watching them grow through one-to-ones, code reviews and working on soft skills to help them thrive in their career.
