Top SchoolJoshua Watson is a Senior Software Engineer with 10 years' experience building web applications and serverless APIs across .NET, Node.js and cloud platforms (Azure and AWS). He has delivered high-impact public-sector and charity projects—such as a campaign site used by over 100,000 people—and currently develops at Jet2.com after a senior developer role at the RSPB.

Known for pragmatic refactors (authentication services using IdentityServer4, OAuth2/OpenID Connect) and operational ownership of SQL/NoSQL systems, he blends product-minded delivery with strong devops awareness. Based in Fenland, UK, he started from an apprenticeship path and retains a learner’s curiosity, often documenting and shaping team practices via playbooks and workshops.
