Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Young is a Senior Software Engineer with four years of focused experience building high-performance, accessible web experiences using React, Next.js, Gatsby and TypeScript. He has driven measurable outcomes at companies like Checkout.com—boosting docs PageSpeed scores from the 40s to 90s—and helped scale multi-locale marketing sites and internal component libraries. At Curve and TerraQuest he led CMS-driven site redesigns, improved developer DX, and shipped component and authentication libraries that continue to be reused across products. Early work at DuPont Teijin Films shows a strong systems mindset, improving uptime and query performance and migrating legacy apps to modern stacks. Based in Darlington, England, Adam combines pragmatic front-end craftsmanship with backend and deployment improvements, and he often focuses on editor and developer usability as much as end-user performance. He’s the kind of engineer who notices both bundle bytes and content workflows, making products faster and teams more productive.
