England, United Kingdom
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJustin Hellings is a life coach and experienced software developer with 13 years of professional experience, combining practical engineering skills (Go, Ruby/Rails, SQL, Mongo, C#, PHP/Drupal) with a deep interest in human development. He runs a private coaching practice in South Manchester while also freelancing for mission-driven organisations that aim to improve lives rather than just generate profit. Trained at the Centre for Coaching and currently pursuing postgraduate study in Gestalt psychotherapy, he blends evidence-informed coaching with empathetic, systems-minded problem solving. His background ranges from embedded C++/DirectX game development and CCTV/OPC integrations to leading Drupal projects and building web services, giving him a rare mix of low-level technical rigor and user-focused product thinking. Comfortable working remotely by phone or video as well as in person, he prefers collaborations that align technical work with social or environmental purpose. An unconventional detail: he has hands-on expedition logistics experience from co-managing remote marine-conservation research trips, which informs his calm, practical approach to complex, high-stress situations.
