Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFreddie Bawden is a software engineer with eight years' experience building front-end and back-end systems, currently at Adobe after contributing production-ready features at Corero Network Security. He specializes in React and Node.js UIs, having created reusable real-time graphing utilities and simplified complex components to improve maintainability and developer velocity. Freddie pairs this with practical backend and data experience — Python, Java, Splunk integrations and CI automation — gained through corporate roles and large student engineering projects like HYPED’s Hyperloop pod. He has a track record of improving developer workflows (pre-commit checks, CI frameworks) and shipping performance-focused web work from his internship at Skyscanner. Comfortable presenting cross-team and mentoring in student organizations, he brings a user-focused mindset plus calm, safety-first instincts honed as a lifeguard and swimming teacher. Outside work he occasionally experiments with game development, blending curiosity for interactive systems with production engineering.
