Top SchoolRobin Harrison is a veteran web technologist and founder with nearly two decades of hands-on experience building web and desktop applications since the early Netscape era. He pivoted from browser-targeted development to expert-level work in the Flash/Flex ecosystem, then returned to modern web stacks, equally comfortable across front-end, back-end, UX and database design. As owner of Predestination Paradox Limited he specializes in bridging the messy gaps between teams and systems, thriving on greenfield proofs-of-concept that apply web tech in non-traditional places. Known for pragmatic craftsmanship, he excels in roles where focused teams rely on a versatile engineer to solve integration and edge-case problems. Based in London, he brings a deep historical perspective on web platforms that often informs simpler, more robust solutions today.
