JRRS1982/README.md

Hi, I'm Jeremy

Full stack software engineer based in the UK. I came to software from careers in financial advice and property management — I got tired of filling in paperwork and started writing code to organise and automate the process.


What I'm working with day-to-day

TypeScript · Node · React · GraphQL / Apollo · Docker · AWS · Redis · Jest · Playwright · CircleCi · Datadog

Microservices, BFF patterns, lead-gen tooling, and keeping production systems boring in the good way.


What I care about

  • Helping to deliver solutions
  • Supporting others
  • Writing readable, well-named code over clever code
  • Tests that catch real bugs, not just lines on a coverage report
  • Guards and defensive coding with logs and monitors to support visibility
  • Automating processes that are repeated
  • Leaving codebases tidier than I found them
  • Finding the right balance between short term feature delivery and tech debt
