What Can I Do For You?

Engineering services that solve actual problems. No fluff, no nonsense.

Websites That Actually Work

Bespoke Web Development

Custom builds, not template jobs. Modern frameworks, performance-obsessed, SEO baked in from the start. If your current site is slow, clunky, or just not cutting it - this is what you need.

Next.js, React, Angular - modern frameworks that perform
Responsive design that works on everything
Performance optimised - fast loading, smooth interactions
SEO-first approach - built to be found
Accessible and standards-compliant
CMS integration where needed

Who It's For

Businesses who've outgrown their WordPress site. Startups who need something proper. Anyone sick of slow, clunky websites that don't convert.

Enterprise Systems That Scale

Software Engineering

This is the serious stuff. APIs, backends, databases, integrations - systems that handle real load and don't fall over when things get busy. Deep experience in insurance and finance means I know what enterprise-grade actually looks like.

.NET Core APIs - robust, scalable, maintainable
Python backends - FastAPI, data processing, calc engines
SQL Server - complex queries, stored procedures, performance tuning
System integrations - making different systems talk to each other
Legacy migrations - getting you off that ancient codebase
Architecture that makes sense - microservices or monolith, whatever fits

Who It's For

Companies with complex problems. Insurance, finance, enterprise. Teams who need senior-level firepower without the permanent hire commitment.

The Calc Engine

Rebuilt an Excel-based insurance rating system into a Python calculation engine. Property, liability, natural catastrophes (cyclone, flood, fire), taxes - everything that goes into calculating a premium. The kind of thing that sounds simple until you actually have to build it. Enterprise-grade, maintainable, and it actually works.

AI That Actually Helps

AI & Automation

AI is powerful. It's also not magic. I build AI solutions that add genuine value - chatbots that help users, automation that saves time, integrations that make sense. No black boxes, no hype, just tools that work.

Chatbots and conversational AI
Process automation with intelligence
Claude integration, custom models
AI-assisted workflows
LLM integration for your existing systems

Who It's For

Businesses who want to use AI without the hype. Teams who need automation but don't want to give everything to a black box. Anyone who wants AI that's actually useful.

How I Work

Flexible engagement models depending on what you need:

Contract / Day Rate - Short to medium term engagements, embedded in your team
Project-Based - Fixed scope, fixed price, delivered to spec
Consulting & Advisory - Architecture reviews, tech audits, strategic guidance
Open to Permanent - The right opportunity at the right company
Remote or On-Site - Based in Essex, but location flexible
