Speaker: Teresa Ng

Android engineer @Starling Bank

 
Teresa is an Android engineer at Starling Bank. She wasn’t always an engineer. Before that she worked in Accounting and frustrated by how manual managing the financial ledgers of a large international corporation was even in the 21st century, she learnt to program and jumped into fintech. Lately she’s been involved in building new features for the Android application at Starling Bank and enjoys implementing new ideas quickly.

Rob is well known as a co-founder of SpringSource, the software company behind the wildly-successful Spring Framework. At SpringSource he was a core contributor to the Spring Framework and led the team that built dm Server (now Eclipse Virgo).
