Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPhillip Wills is a frontend engineer with 12 years of experience who transitioned from full-stack work to specialize in JavaScript, React, and TypeScript at scale. He spends the last 5+ years working inside AWS/Amazon environments, building and maintaining workflow and CMS applications backed by Lambda, DynamoDB, S3 and other AWS services. A pragmatist who favors test-driven development and simple tools, he has built fully unit-tested frontend libraries and automated test suites that have repeatedly caught regressions missed by manual testing. Phillip also automates operational pain points—once writing a Node.js CLI to locally grep CloudFront logs—and consistently breaks complex problems into manageable parts to deliver reliable, performant UIs. Based in Seattle, he pairs a focus on clean, efficient code with hands-on infrastructure experience and a track record of improving performance and developer productivity.
