Senior🎓
Top SchoolRory King is a Senior Software Engineer with 13 years of experience building scalable, developer-focused web platforms from Manchester. He has delivered large internal systems at DAZN and Sky, specialising in modern front-end stacks (React, TypeScript, Vue, GraphQL) and micro-frontend architectures that preserve team autonomy while supporting high-concurrency workloads. Rory pairs product-minded engineering—design systems, reusable components and user-centric journeys—with cloud-native backends on AWS (Lambda, ECS/Fargate, RDS, Kinesis). He has a track record of improving real customer KPIs (for example driving an 85% reduction in billing-related contacts) and migrating legacy services into modern JS/GraphQL ecosystems. A tinkerer by nature, he blends deep implementation chops with pragmatic platform thinking to make tools that developers and end users actually want to use.
