Summary
Matthew Glover is a founder and full‑stack JavaScript developer with 11 years of professional experience building web applications using Node.js and React, and a background that uniquely blends commercial law and an IMBA. He previously led project delivery and hands‑on engineering as Principal Crafter at 8th Light and has run his own consultancy, Fortis Green Digital, since 2021, focusing on pragmatic, client‑facing solutions. Matthew’s earlier career as a solicitor and project manager gives him an unusual talent for translating complex legal and technical requirements into clear, actionable plans for non‑technical stakeholders. He has a long history of building web and interactive systems dating back to the early 2000s, including database‑driven mapping and rich media projects, and he pairs entrepreneurial instincts with disciplined delivery. Based in England, he combines commercial acumen with full‑stack craft to help organisations ship reliable, maintainable software.
