What is your role at AppCheck?

My role at AppCheck is an Application Support Engineer, I am one of the people responsible for assisting customers with any technical queries regarding our product and using my knowledge to help them get the best out of our software; and helping them understand what sort of attack vectors the scanner can exploit.

 

Tell us a bit about yourself outside of work

Most of my spare time is spent with my other half. I do also enjoy playing a collection of games with my friends online and practicing conscientiousness which usually includes reading books, going to the gym, or studying new languages & technologies.

 

What initially attracted you to AppCheck?

Since an early age I have been interested in cyber-security and just the technology surrounding that field in general. I was pleased to have a call from Richard who is the internal recruiter, and I knew straight away that an opportunity to work here was perfect for me and my career as I was looking for a new challenge.

How were your first months?

I am most definitely delving into the subjects that interested me since I was a kid, and there is plenty of challenges here you can take on if you want to grow and learn more. I was with my previous employer for most of my career and I am so glad I made this decision for me.

 

What has been the best part about joining AppCheck so far?

I have always believed that you should surround yourself with smarter people, and there is no shortage of genius at AppCheck, there is a lot of talented people to learn from and everyone is so kind and welcoming you definitely make friends and not just colleagues here. I have only met a few of the people here in person so far and the rest virtually, but I am incredibly eager to see everyone’s faces at the next social event!

What does the future hold for you at AppCheck?

There is no telling currently, and I mean that in a good way! There is so many different avenues to go down that interest me and loads of subjects I could learn and grow into, so I don’t want to speak too soon as I am spoilt with choice.

 

What would you say to someone else looking to join AppCheck?

As mentioned previously, I was in a role at another company for most of my career so becoming a part of a different family felt daunting because I was so comfortable but I am so relieved I made that decision, sometimes the grass is greener on the other side!
