Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Birbeck is a seasoned software architect and platform lead with 15+ years delivering large-scale, data-driven systems across startups and enterprises, currently founding SRE and platform capabilities for Shell's DSX. He blends deep hands-on expertise in Node.js, ElasticSearch, AWS, Docker, microservices and web components with a long track record in semantic web standards—he proposed both RDFa and JSON-LD and remains an invited W3C expert. Mark has repeatedly designed end-to-end pipelines that standardise data with Schema.org, from podcast analytics to calendar crawlers, and enjoys turning messy web data into searchable, actionable platforms. A pragmatic agile advocate (mainly Kanban) and prolific open source author, he ships production-ready modules and tooling that others build on. Based in London, he pairs systems-level thinking with developer-first platform work, and often surfaces clever schema and stream-processing shortcuts that reduce operational cost.
