Experience
I have been a London-based contractor for over fifteen years. I am at home in both start-up and enterprise environments.
I'm a full stack developer that began with the LAMP stack early 00s, focusing on JavaScript in 2008 and TypeScript since 2015.
In addition to very strong core coding skills I am a creative thinker with an excellent understanding of classic design principles and usability. I understand the composition of a well architected application from a mobile-first UI down to containerised services. I believe code should be elegant, scalable and tested – but not too clever. I actively seek out and apply best practices and I enjoy bringing order to chaos.
I'm an excellent team player with a positive attitude and I'm always motivated to deliver superior quality work.
Senior Experience
I have a professional attitude and can be relied upon in client-facing roles. I enjoy coordinating developers to deliver, both frontend and backend.
I consider myself to be a highly effective communicator with other developers, product owners and development managers.
I value the opportunity to guide junior developers. Supportive code reviews can strengthen their problem-solving and coding skills.
Very much at home in a SCRUM environment. I've helped to refine Agile processes in some of the places I've worked.
I specialise in delivering enterprise UI code with Angular and Nest. I have proven experience in increasing team productivity through well thought-out architecture and tooling.
