Top SchoolRitchie Comley is a London-based Director and full-stack JavaScript specialist with 11 years of professional experience building high-performance web platforms for major media and energy brands. He has led large re-platforming efforts—most notably migrating The Independent to a React server-side rendered architecture with client-side React islands and a CI pipeline using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Docker, Cypress and Playwright. Comfortable from infrastructure to UI, he pairs hands-on coding (React, React Native, Node) with systems thinking honed over years delivering cross-platform apps at News UK and Sky News. He runs his consultancy vehicle and now splits time between director-level work at Tubular Heuristics and senior engineering at E.ON Next, combining product delivery with technical leadership. Trained originally in astrophysics, he brings a data-driven, analytical approach to performance optimization and complex engineering trade-offs.
