Meet Patrick, our resident bug finder and detective ๐Ÿž ๐Ÿ” His role as QA Engineer for SwipedOn and Space Connect keeps him busy, ensuring any pesky bugs are squashed and solved before any new features are made live. We sat down for a quick-fire question round to find out more about his #swipedonlife.

What does a day in the life of you at SwipedOn look like?

Coffee (duh), catch-up on anything that happened overnight, do the mahi (work), solutionising.. next minute.. wait, where did my day go?! โฐ

What do you do in your free time?  

Practice my Zoom flat face. Generally "geek-out" (Gaming, anything sci-fi, and VR). To balance out the screen time, I also enjoy getting out for a bushwalk. Serve the cat ๐Ÿˆ and spend time with my family.

What are three things still left on your bucket list?  

  1. Find gold in a river ๐ŸŒŸ
  2. Visit Antarctica ๐ŸงŠ
  3. Visit Patagonia

Alice in Chains, Halls and Oates. Depeche Mode. ๐Ÿ•บ

If you were stuck on a desert island and you could choose one person from the SwipedOn team to come with you, who would you take and why?

It's got to be Reece, I suspect he has some IRL skills that could help us ๐Ÿ‘€

Let's end this with a weird fact about you...

Controversial opinion living in the Bay but if it's raining, I'm soooo happy. Rain is my jam โ˜”๏ธ
