Summary
Richard Tugwell is a seasoned Solutions Architect and hands-on full-stack developer with 30+ years in IT and over a decade focused on modern JavaScript stacks (Node/Express, Angular, Vue). He has led architecture, UX and business modelling work for clients including UBS and Accenture, and has deep domain experience building BI/data-visualisation systems as well as web voting and survey platforms. As owner of Forthmedia Ltd and principal data architect at Doricmor, he blends consultancy agility with long-term product delivery, often bridging dev, DevOps and SOA concerns.
