Harrison Evans is a London-based Frontend Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in TypeScript, Angular and React, and a strong recent focus on GraphQL ecosystems including Apollo, Hasura and type-graphql. He moves comfortably between startup and freelance environments—having been a founding engineer at Workflow, run his own consultancy, and shipped product work for clients like Samsung’s SmartThings. Harrison blends pragmatic engineering with architectural sense, often favoring typed contracts and client-server schema-first workflows to reduce runtime errors. Notably pragmatic about roles, he’s selective about permanent positions unless they offer novel challenges, which speaks to a continual appetite for learning and high-impact problem spaces. His background in astrophysics hints at a rigorous, analytical approach to complex front-end systems.
