Bio
Ben Johnson
I've worked with James as an Analyst Web Developer since 2006, on dozens of projects I've managed ranging from UK education to US federal security contracts. His technical abilities are first rate, including PHP, MySQL, Java, HTML5/CSS, JavaScript (inc jQuery, Knockout) and Git SCM. James has also proved consistently reliable, methodical and innovative in his problem solving approach (e.g., advocating cutting-edge Machine Learning technology as a solution to complex estimation scenarios), and great at communicating his ideas. I recommend James as a developer and team member without hesitation.
Ben Organ
James is a talented and hard-working individual with exceptional skills in PHP, MySQL and Drupal. He worked for Nudge Digital as a developer and impressed the team with his understanding of Drupal and with how quickly he picked up new technologies. James has the combination of a Computer Science background and good business awareness, allowing him to see things from both commercial and technical points of view. He is fun to work with, intelligent and dedicated. I would have no hesitation in employing James again as a developer or recommending him to anyone who is thinking of doing likewise.
