About me

I am a hard working and self motivated frontend engineer with 14 years experience, based in London, UK.

My key skills are in Typescript (Angular and Node.js), HTML, CSS, Ionic, webpack and Firebase. I also have a strong interest in UX.

Hire me

I am a highly experienced Typescript developer, with an efficient work ethic, available for short to medium term remote contracting work.

Things I can help you with:

  • I can help with anything angular related, including, but not limited to: component design and implementation, migration strategies from angularjs to angular, high level architectural planning and performance optimisations. I have been using angularjs since version 1.0 was released in 2012.
  • I am extremely proficient at building mobile apps with the ionic framework, and have shipped full blown apps from concept to production in just a few months.
  • I have a very deep knowledge of build tooling, especially webpack, and have frequently contributed back to its ecosystem of plugins and loaders. I can fine tune configuration to optimise build times, reduce bundle sizes to as small as possible, and demystify the inner workings to members of your team.
  • I have lots of experience configuring CI systems to automatically run tests on every build, and automatically deploy to beta and production environments.
  • I am a firm believer in writing robust and maintainable code. All of the code I write follows industry best practises, and is well tested.
  • I am extremely well versed in the Javascript language as a whole, aware of all of its strengths and weaknesses, and am up to date with using the latest esnext features. Consequently, I am very comfortable working on projects outside of the angular framework, such as in node or react.
  • Finally, as a result of working for startups my entire career, I am very comfortable working to tight time scales by leading and managing teams to get a project over the line to completion. On the flip side, I am also very happy to work independently, or with a team, for someone else with a "no-ego" attitude.
