I build back-end systems and full-stack products that hold up in production.
Back-end and full-stack engineer shipping production web and mobile apps end to end with TypeScript and Node.js, Next.js, React Native and PostgreSQL. Currently reading for an MSc in Cybersecurity in Manchester.
I'm a back-end and full-stack software engineer. I ship production web and mobile applications end to end, working across TypeScript and Node.js back ends, Next.js and React Native front ends, and PostgreSQL data layers.
I contribute to open source: a Dart package I published now powers the cart in a live ordering app, and I contributed a build fix to the TypeScript template in Fastify's official CLI.
I'm interested in applying LLMs and the Model Context Protocol to product features that are reliable and well tested, rather than merely impressive in a demo.

Built a management system with a team of three that centralised customers, menu and orders in one platform, removing the need to switch between separate tools.
Launched a Flutter ordering app that moved 45% of orders off the in-person queue, cutting the average wait at peak from 10 minutes to 3.
Set up continuous delivery with GitHub Actions to standardise build-and-deploy across every service, with Postman API tests and Playwright end-to-end coverage guarding each release.

Built the React Native front end of a mobile marketplace app in a five-person team, delivering the UI used in the pitch that secured the company's first investment.
Focused the two-month engagement on the screens and flows the investor demo needed, shipping a working prototype on time.
Collaborated across the team using Agile workflows and Git/GitHub.

A distributed notification dispatch service that accepts requests over a REST API, durably queues them in Postgres, and distributes work across a configurable pool of workers.
Used row-level locking (SELECT … FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) so each job is claimed and sent by exactly one worker under concurrent load.
Implemented at-least-once delivery with idempotency keys to prevent duplicate sends on retry, exponential backoff for transient failures, and a dead-letter queue for messages that exhaust their retries.
Added Redis-backed token-bucket rate limiting to throttle throughput and protect downstream providers.
Modelled the data layer with PostgreSQL and Prisma.
A headless, deterministic, immutable cart engine for configurable Dart e-commerce products, with merge-safe cart lines, per-option quantities and robust normalisation rules. It powers the cart in the Munchies ordering app, serving 200+ users in production.
Diagnosed and fixed stale-file serving in the TypeScript template of fastify-cli, the official CLI for Fastify. Old compiled output was being served after source changes, so I added a clean step that makes every build start from a known state.
I'm looking for back-end and full-stack engineering roles, and I'm happy to hear about anything interesting either way. Email is the surest way to reach me.
