About

I am Tim McGilchrist. I currently work as a Software Engineer/Functional Programmer with Tarides working with OCaml.

I find functional programming interesting and effective for solving problems. Mostly I use OCaml and Haskell but have known Erlang, Elixir, Lisp and Standard ML at various times. My interests are compilers, distributed systems and operating systems.

I help organise the Sydney based Functional Programming group, FP-Syd.

My open source contributions are mostly on github.com/tmcgilchrist.

I occasionally use Twitter via lambda_foo and Linkedin

Sometimes I look like this:

Outside of computing I enjoy music, MTB riding, growing plants and being outdoors.

I can be contacted at lambda_foo on Twitter or email timmcgil@gmail.com.
