Twilio
Full Stack Developer , Remote, USA
During the tenure at Twilio I was part of multiple teams as a full stack developer. The first was under Programmable Messaging where we integrated UI features to enable customers to control and manage new features released as part of the core product. This role also required us to maintain and extend a BFF layer written in Typescript to interact with downstream internal services and relate this abc to the UI. Some key areas that were outside of the standard front end programming was a heavy emphasis on data visualisation allowing customers to monitor and proactively alert users of activity on their accounts with their API usage.
Another team where I worked was focused on building the design system for the frontend of Twilio web applications. It was an open source system called Paste built on top of Emotion and Reakit libraries to create highly accessible UI components that can be consumed by developers to build consistent experiences for our customers. These were highly customized components for Twilio use cases. This involved working very closely with designers and overcoming challenges with accessibility and responsiveness to give all users the best experiences.
Salesforce
Technical Consultant , Remote, USA
Working as a technical consultant provided the experience of working closely with an external client, the US’ largest non profit, delivering solutions in an agile way. The role for this client was as a post production full stack developer.
These responsibilities ranged from developing new interactions between external services, enhancing existing solutions as well as refactoring old processes. Alongside all of these development tasks I was also required to investigate data issues from quality to unexpected process results. Classes were written in order to target and clean these data sets along with resolving any bugs identified along the way.
American Credit Acceptance
UI Developer , Remote, UK
I worked across multiple Angular projects during my time here. Being the sole developer on 2 projects developing from use cases to MVPs and into production.
Closely working with an internal developer we produced a starter repository. The requirement was to produce a template application with highly reusable presentational and container components such as authentication services. To achieve the goal of being easily customised to fit the needs of new teams object orientation was implemented via typescript.
ACT
Full Stack Engineer , Cardiff, Wales, UK
During my full stack role I implemented new endpoints built with Java Swagger and Dropwizard interacting with other Java services as part of a loosely coupled microservice architecture. I brought previous knowledge of front end design into the team by demonstrating and implementing component driven architecture in the front-end using both angularJS and Angular, documenting the theory to share with other members of the team.
With the goal of containerization set on the teams I worked closely with the lead UI developer to Dockerize the Angular frontend, bringing previous knowledge of the process. Integration with the Jenkins pipeline followed.
BT
Full Stack Developer , Cardiff, Wales, UK
Becoming a part of and R&D team in its early stages provided new and exciting challenges. These included managing our own infrastructure via Ansible and investigating and implementing new technologies such as Docker.
Our initial task was to create a service for the company to easily ingest, transform and store log files from servers to provide near real time analytics on applications and infrastructure. Having technical freedom of implementation we chose ELK, Docker, Angular, Kafka, Ansible and Python Flask to name a few.
