Scott is a software generalist who has been programming computers since 1983. He started programming as a child by writing games for the Commodore 64, and since then has had a huge variety of programming experience, from writing low-level device drivers for a number of platforms, through to developing AAA title commercial video games, high-performance 3D visualisation software and also highly-available enterprise-scale fault-tolerant software for the health industry.
Scott graduated with a degree in Information Technology with Honours in 1999, and has been engaged professionally as a Software Engineer ever since. He founded ProjectHut in 2008 when, while working as a contractor, he discovered he was having to setup the same source control and project management environments for every new project.
