• Lead Creative Developer

  • Aug 2013 - Jan 2017

  Reporting to the Technical Director and later directly to the Head of Digital, my primary role was to deliver great products with code. Since I'm creatively-minded though, I also attended early-stage meetings to be part of the Ideation process. Proposed numerous tweaks and creative concepts that were used in projects; all of which steered creative thought towards more technically feasible products without reducing creativity. Bridging this gap between Creative and Technical teams helped ensure great ideas didn't get lost in production. - Consult on technology feasbility from pre-brief to delivery - Suggest tweaks and concepts in both design and UX to improve the end-to-end product experience - Primary lead on all front-end architecture and much of the back-end architecture - Wrote lots and lots and lots of code for websites, web apps, apps, games, kiosks and one-offs - Implemented workflow improvements to increase quality and consistent of code - Hire and mentor developers of all levels - Lead suppliers and contractors to deliver quality work - Run coding workshops for non-technical colleagues - Attend conferences and events and present findings back in workshops and presentations CLIENTS: Coca-cola, Vodafone, Metlife, Heineken, HSBC, Sage, BAT Show less
