James Clarke is a London-based software engineer with nine years’ experience building full-stack applications using JavaScript and Ruby, and frameworks such as Ruby on Rails, React and Angular. He has a strong track record modernizing monolithic Rails apps into microservices and improving performance and technical debt at companies like Bloom & Wild and Good Sixty. Comfortable across front-end and back-end concerns, he has shipped customer-facing features, refactored legacy code, and led Stripe integration work to boost retention. James learned through immersive training and progressive roles, combining practical TDD/CI discipline with hands-on product collaboration. Currently at Cleo after a short stint at Defense.com™, he brings both startup agility and e-commerce operational experience. Colleagues would note his pragmatic focus on maintainable code and measurable customer impact rather than flashy tech for its own sake.
