Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLaurence Budd is a pragmatic software developer with eight years' experience building and testing cloud-native APIs and automation pipelines, currently contributing to Sage after a recent role as an Azure API-focused developer at Hastings Direct. He blends hands-on coding in C#, Java and Python with DevOps skills—creating Bicep templates, CI/CD pipelines, and automated API test suites—to deliver maintainable, scalable deployments. Comfortable across development and QA, he has a track record of turning testing insights into code-level fixes and of virtualising APIs to enable safer, faster releases. Known for clear documentation and knowledge transfer, he frequently leads sessions to bring teams up to speed on API creation-to-deployment practices. Based in Newcastle, he is ambitious to broaden his leadership responsibilities and eventually manage a team of developers while still staying technical.
