Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolKriss Jessop is a Senior Back-End Engineer based in London with 11 years’ experience building scalable, production-grade services for the travel sector. He specialises in .NET backend systems, integration with bed banks and ancillary providers, and designing high-throughput hybrid-cloud solutions (Azure/GCP) that handle thousands of requests per second. Kriss has a strong track record modernising legacy platforms—removing technical debt, migrating away from SOAP, and introducing caching and data pipelines that delivered sub-second responses and measurable conversion improvements. He pairs pragmatic TDD/BDD practices with tooling like Terraform, Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ and Dataflow, and has led onboarding and mentoring for contractors and junior engineers. Outside of travel tech, his background in systems administration and game tooling gives him an unusual blend of operational resilience and product-focused design.
