Let’s talk.

I am available for contract work — three to six months, senior TypeScript, Next.js and Postgres, outside IR35 preferred. I contracted for four years before the break, on two concurrent engagements, one of which I built and then ran for the same client for four years. Ideally somewhere the hard problems are in the system rather than the interface, and where I would be reviewing other people’s code as well as writing my own. Start that conversation, or read the engagement in detail — length, IR35, right to work, and where I am not the right fit.

Separately: I run production systems built almost entirely with coding agents, and I am still interested in what that actually changes inside real engineering teams — if yours builds with agents, twenty minutes comparing notes is welcome whether or not there is a role behind it.

Location
Bristol, UK — UK-based and available now. Currently on a temporary working trip abroad, with a daily overlap from about 13:00 UK and flexibility outside it. Back in the UK early in the engagement, and on site from then.

On the code you cannot see

Most of the work described on this site is in private repositories. I am happy to walk through any of it in detail — schema, failure modes, the parts that went wrong first — or to share access where that is appropriate.
