My Experience
Hi there! My name is Sybil Mayard. I graduated in November 2019 from the University of Kent with a Distinction in MSc Computer Science. My goal is to establish myself as a freelance website designer and developer, and help small businesses develop their online presence. Services I offer include website design, website development, website maintenance and training.
In my spare time I enjoy building websites such as this one 🙂.
I also work as QA Engineer for both Esme Learning Solutions, a provider of professional development courses from top-tier universities powered by next-gen AI learning and Riff Analytics, the smart platform that improves teams' collaboration and communication skills. I work closely with the IT department to ensure that essential systems function correctly by creating QA plans and carrying out rigorous testing on software and services. My previous role as Web Manager entailed maintaining the Shopify website and building landing pages.
My other role is Digital Director and keyboard player for x-blu, an avant-garde post-punk band from South East London.
I am also the founder of VidCareer. It's a start-up idea which began during my Masters course, and is an online platform for connecting small businesses with candidates through virtual career events, saving time and money.
For more information about x-blu, VidCareer and my other projects, please explore the Projects page.
Prior to Esme Learning, I worked for Capacitas, a London-based IT consultancy specialising in load testing and performance testing of clients' websites. My role as a Junior Analyst involved scripting the user journey with Apache JMeter, running the load tests, analysing the results, then compiling a technical report for the client detailing the issues to be investigated.
