Summary
Mike Gossmann is a Front-end Technical Lead with 13 years of hands-on experience modernizing web stacks, untangling legacy code, and making development teams more predictable and productive. He blends practical full-stack competence with a minimalist, realist approach—adding automation, streamlining deploys, and choosing the right tools rather than the trendiest ones. Known as the go-to fixer, he thrives in ambiguous codebases and has repeatedly been relied on to mentor teams, introduce source control and CI, and coordinate complex cross-functional needs. His background spans Drupal architecture, DevOps, and developer experience roles across digital agencies and media companies, giving him a rare mix of technical breadth and process-savvy judgment. Based in Chatham, Ontario, he seeks values-driven teams where his ability to spot hidden complexity and map clear paths forward can have immediate impact.
