A website that showcases the different relevant income thresholds and what to watch out for

👋 Hello, I'm Zain!

       

I graduated from the University of Cambridge with a BA in Mathematics in 2019. I then worked as a software engineer at QuantumBlack, specifically within QuantumBlack Labs across a variety of our products, including Kedro, our open source development workflow framework and CausalNex, our open source causalex inference library. I left QuantumBlack in early 2022 to join Maven Securities and help build out their new Systematic Alpha division. I'm a huge fan of open source, as a core developer on Zarr and with numerous open source contributions to various frameworks and libraries.

Blog posts

You can find my (irregular) blogging over at zainp.com/blog where I talk about everything from experimenting with Golang to some of Kedro's new features to hacking around with my banking app.

Appreaciate the work you've been doing to get this up and running! 👍

Marginal Tax Bands could be clearer

"Think it also needs to be very clear on the part where you enter the 40% tax bracket it's only on everything you earn after £50,000, many people still think you all of a sudden lose another 20% on your whole income"

Misaligned timeline visualisation

The timeline's dotted line is not centered with the threshold bubble visually, not sure if intentional but it's noticeable :)

Well done otherwise!

Tax Codes

One from personal experience - tax codes are important no matter where you are this scale
