Who is Stew?

As a Senior Software Developer at Spiral, I help design and build the software that supports clinical trials and medical research. My role spans everything from developing new trial functionality and strengthening our core platform to solving the technical challenges that naturally arise when supporting complex clinical studies.

I've been developing software for almost four decades, working across CRM systems, marketing platforms, enterprise software, and small business solutions. Joining the medical research sector gave me the opportunity to apply that experience to work with a much broader purpose—supporting researchers whose work has the potential to improve health outcomes around the world.

What I enjoy most is that every study is different. Each brings its own requirements, challenges, and opportunities to create practical solutions that make research easier to manage.

Beyond Spiral you’ll find me

Outside of work, I enjoy cycling, sailing, gaming, and music.

Whether it's being out on the water, exploring new roads by bike, or unwinding with a good game or book, I enjoy activities that challenge me in different ways and provide a healthy balance to software development.
