Summary
George Duff is a results-driven Developer Lead with over a decade of hands-on experience building and managing high-performing engineering, DevOps, and support teams across SaaS and cloud-hosted platforms. He has repeatedly aligned technology strategy with business goals—delivering rapid launches, tightening SLAs from 70% to 95%+, and driving cost and performance improvements across large estates. Comfortable across the stack, he has overseen Ruby on Rails, React, GraphQL and SQL projects, led cloud operations on GCP and Azure, and architected automation tools using PowerShell, Node.js and React. His background includes running 24/7 mission-critical services for thousands of users with proven disaster recovery and uptime discipline (claims of six-nines availability at scale). Beyond delivery metrics, George is skilled at reorganising teams, mentoring talent into leadership, and embedding ISO and audit-ready processes. Based in Leeds, he brings a pragmatic blend of engineering, service management and operational leadership that turns complex requirements into reliable, auditable systems.
