Development and engineering support

I can help with backend development, web applications, APIs and integrations, drawing on practical experience of business systems and established application workflows.

Python and Django development

Development, maintenance and extension of Python-based web applications, including backend functionality, database-backed features and application integrations.

API development and integration

Building or extending REST APIs, connecting external services, and integrating applications with existing systems.

Business workflow automation

Investigating repetitive or manual processes and developing appropriate Python tools, integrations or internal applications to support them.

Existing application improvements

Understanding an existing codebase, investigating defects, improving selected areas of functionality and making changes with maintainability in mind.

Technical investigation and prototyping

Exploring a technical problem, comparing viable approaches, building a prototype and documenting the results to inform implementation decisions.

Working together

I am interested in remote engineering roles, contract work and selected freelance engagements where my experience is relevant.

For new work, the starting point is understanding the existing system, the problem to solve and the constraints that matter.
