Top SchoolJames Ivings is a co-founder and front-end specialist with 11 years of experience building web products, currently focused on Leave Me Alone, an email unsubscription tool aimed at reclaiming users' inboxes. He co-founded Squarecat to deliver high-quality front-end solutions and has led teams building large single-page applications and data visualisations for government and startup clients. James combines practical engineering—HTML5, Backbone.js, Node/Express—with a product-minded approach to UX and accessibility, and has repeatedly shipped MVPs, customer portals, and bespoke CMSs. Comfortable in high-pressure, fast-moving environments, he has a track record of turning complex data into usable interfaces and mentoring teams to adopt reusable front-end architecture. An early advocate for pragmatic front-end standards, he pairs a First Class BSc in Computer Science with a hands-on habit of solving problems others avoid.
