Kieran Massey Staff Profile
Kieran Massey is in the Staff Profile hot seat this week. Thanks for a fantastic interview Kieran!
Can you describe your role at IMGS?
My current role at IMGS is IT graduate, I started with IMGS back in April 2020, I was lucky to get in with IMGS when I did because of Covid just kicking off, things were uncertain for a spell . My role consists of working with the development team and meeting customers’ data driven needs in developing applications, BIs, generally using Hexagon’s M.App Enterprise Studio so far in my daily work. I would also work daily with Databases, some CSS where applicable and some dodgy Javascript from myself when also needed.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
In my spare time I like to play Playstation, big gamer since my dad bought me a Nintendo 64 back in the day. I also read comics from time to time, I have a nephew too so I try to be involved with Jaxson as much as I am able throughout Covid. I do like blowing off steam at the gym, but with Covid its more of a home grown gym, caveman style!
What’s the last book that you read?
Apart from comics, I’m reading the Lee Childs ‘Jack Reacher’ collection, I was surprised to find out there is 19 books in the series, I’ve 3 down, a lot to go.
What will be the first destination that you will visit overseas when travel reopens and why?
Wow first destination, tough one! My Fiancée and I (Snuck that one in!) have been putting off Greece for awhile and I think after this everlasting lockdown, we owe it to ourselves to go over and visit Greece. Other than that just to be able to go out for some food again with the gang, drinks, all of that social aspect to life, will be nice to have again.
If you could do another job for just one day, what would it be?
I think I’d like to try acting! Very random but I am a movie buff so to act for a few years would be cool, play on the Irish accent thing for a while. Make sure I got to be in a movie with Salma Hayek!
What do you enjoy most about working at IMGS?
I love the closeness of the team actually, even though we’re remotely working, I can feel how close and connected the team is to one another, and that made coming into IMGS so easily to adapt to also. My last job wasn’t so team driven which was just chaos to be honest, so to see how close IMGS is and to be apart of this family now is special.
I love how every day is different in my job, be it creating data driven customized applications, or BIs for customer needs, every day so far has brought something different and I wouldn’t change that for the world!
