Jon Shilton is a Senior/Principal software engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable, event-driven microservices and modern full-stack applications, specialising in Node.js and TypeScript. He has led platform and migration efforts at enterprise scale—shaping platform engineering, cost optimisation, and developer tooling at Burberry and driving resilient media services at DAZN. Comfortable across AWS serverless and container platforms, Terraform orchestration, and CI/CD pipelines, he pairs pragmatic engineering with strong security and observability practices. He excels at translating between technical and non-technical stakeholders, turning compliance and regional requirements into workable infrastructure and developer workflows. A background that spans web, backend, and infra roles—from PHP/Drupal to Go and Kubernetes—gives him an uncommon ability to modernise legacy systems while keeping teams productive.
