“It was highly educational and fulfilling to work with Conor, who is fantastic in his role as CTO at Bliss. I had the pleasure of working with him for 2 years and across a wide range of projects. He handled the multi-faceted responsibilities of his role like no one I've ever seen and consistently provided me with wisdom and insight that developed me massively as a developer and as a team member/leader. As a manager, developer, dev-ops specialist, and CTO, Conor earns my highest recommendation. Thanks for everything!”

Big Chip Shortlisted: Umbro Golaço for Best Digital Marketing Campaign

Umbro Golaço was an international celebration of incredible goals, recorded, uploaded, viewed and voted on by young and old alike for a chance to win tickets to the 2014 world cup in Brazil.
The project was a huge success, the app achieved No. 1 position for 'Sport' in Brazil, was featured on ESPN and reached over 1M people on social media.

The project was a huge success, the app achieved No. 1 position for 'Sport' in Brazil, was featured on ESPN and reached over 1M people on social media.
The campaign though challenging was the most exciting and testing technical challenge of my early career. Using Amazon Web Services we transcoded video which had been cropped and uploaded from Android and iOS. The apps we build ourselves using Appcelerator. Finally the uploaded videos were moderated and watched, commented on and voted on in a Drupal CMS. Oh and it was available in multiple languages!
In recognition the Umbro team presented us an illustration from the campaign, signed by Roberto Carlos. Today it hangs framed proudly for all to see in Bliss HQ.
