Summary
George Gillams is an Expert Frontend Software Engineer with eight years’ experience building accessible, design-system-driven web experiences at companies like Typeform and Skyscanner. He specialises in frontend React work, content-driven public sites and CMS-powered experiments, with a strong focus on SEO and digital accessibility and a track record leading accessibility audits, training and design reviews. At Typeform he shapes self-explanatory workflows that surface the right features at the right time, and at Skyscanner he contributed to the open-source Backpack design system across web and iOS. Equally comfortable shipping product-facing features and enabling creators through well-designed CMS interfaces, he pairs technical craft with pragmatic user-centred thinking. Outside engineering he’s an obstacle-course athlete, photographer and frequent traveller—hints of a methodical, observant approach that informs both his accessibility advocacy and design-system work.
