Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAngus Russell is a seasoned front-end engineer and founder with 11 years of commercial experience who builds products end-to-end—from pixel-perfect UIs to pragmatic back-end integrations. He has founded multiple startups (including NightCafe Studio and Syntropy), scaled production React/Redux apps at Atlassian and Qantas, and led product and UX strategy as a hands-on COO at BrainBlocks. Comfortable across design, growth and technical execution, Angus thrives in early-stage teams where he drives feature prioritization, onboarding flows and measurable product improvements. His background in AI research and building JavaScript-first tooling gives him uncommon insight into performance and algorithmic thinking for front-end systems. Based in Cairns, Australia, he leverages a broad founder network (StartMate alumnus) to bring business-first perspectives to engineering work.
