Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMike Little is a veteran software developer and developer advocate with over three decades of engineering experience and 23 years focused on WordPress, which he co-founded in 2003. He advises enterprise clients at Human Made/Altis while running his own consultancy, zed1.com, and has a track record of building high-profile government and civic WordPress projects including work for No.10 Downing Street and the Law Commission. A Sun Certified Java Programmer and former technical architect, he blends deep systems-level knowledge—configuration control, parallel development streams and fault analysis—with practical training and documentation skills as a published technical editor. Active in the WordPress community as an organiser, mentor, and occasional contributor, he pairs open-source stewardship with hands-on product delivery for global audiences. Less obvious: he balances enterprise platform advocacy with grassroots community leadership and charitable trusteeship, bringing both strategic and human-centered perspectives to digital projects.
