Summary
Andrew Crook is a seasoned Drupal developer with nine years of focused experience delivering and maintaining complex PHP-based web platforms across public and enterprise sectors from the Greater Bristol Area. He combines hands-on module, theme and distribution development (Drupal 7/8), migration expertise and automated testing with practical DevOps tooling like Composer, Git, Docker/Docksal and GitLab CI. Comfortable toggling between hands-on coding and client-facing roles, he has repeatedly led migrations, multisite support and bespoke integrations using technologies such as Symfony, Laravel, Elasticsearch and GraphQL. As owner of Somersoft Limited and a long-term contractor for clients like Ricardo and Affinity Digital, he brings an entrepreneurial mindset and a track record of reliable delivery on both short contracts and sustained programmes. Notably, he has built sub-distributions and migration pipelines that balance repeatable architecture with site-specific customisation.
