Carl Reid is a software architect with 12 years of experience building full-stack, cloud-native systems primarily using C#/.NET and modern front-end stacks like Next.js, TypeScript and React. Based in Aarhus, he has led migrations from legacy and closed-source platforms to in-house solutions, notably driving a DAM rebuild and platform-wide source control and CI improvements at BESTSELLER. He combines strong backend expertise—APIs, Azure/GCP, containerization and infrastructure-as-code—with pragmatic developer tooling work such as NUKE builds, GitHub workflows and observability libraries that sped up incident diagnosis. Previously at Coolblue and Clicksco he championed front-end modernization and automation, and he has a track record of turning maintenance-heavy systems into reliable, well-documented platforms. Notably, he moved enterprise teams off third-party tooling and into maintainable, owned solutions while mentoring peers in best practices for code quality and collaboration.
