Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Dyer is a full-stack software engineer with 10 years' experience building customer-facing and internal tools for major UK tech and telecom firms. Currently at giffgaff, he extends and integrates a Flarum-based community forum into a React Native app using TypeScript, Redux, GraphQL and Node.js to improve self-service support for millions of members. Previously he delivered data-heavy monitoring and reporting systems at Sky and Cisco, creating RESTful APIs and dashboards that served senior stakeholders and global teams. Comfortable across PHP (Symfony/Laravel), MySQL and modern JS stacks, he focuses on test-driven development and shipping practical features that meet clear business needs. Based in High Wycombe after starting his career in London, he brings a pragmatic blend of security-conscious tooling experience from enterprise environments and openness to contributing back to extensible open-source projects. Non-obvious: he’s progressed from hands-on solo work in small ecommerce and warehouse roles to shaping systems relied upon by international teams and director-level users.
