Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLiam O is a Senior Hybrid TV Developer based in London with over two decades of experience blending software engineering, video production and games development into polished consumer experiences. He specialises in building performant, UX-driven apps for resource-constrained big-screen platforms (HbbTV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, YouView, Freeview/Freesat, Hisense VIDAA, Roku) using JavaScript/TypeScript, React and platform-specific tooling. Liam has led cross-functional teams and long-running freelance projects, shipping hybrid TV products used across hundreds of devices while coordinating releases, QA and client requirements. His background in games, animation and motion graphics gives him a practical edge in optimising animations and interactions for low-spec hardware. He is equally at home mentoring teams and defining UX engineering practices that preserve design intent through implementation. A creative problem-solver, he often approaches technical constraints as design opportunities, producing unusually polished UIs on limited platforms.
