United Kingdom
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSam De Maeyer is a software engineering manager and principal frontend expert with 11 years’ experience building and refactoring large-scale web applications and leading teams through tech-stack transformations. He combines hands-on delivery—driving migrations from Ember.js to React/Remix and introducing GraphQL—with people-first leadership, having hired and mentored over 50 engineers and run a training program that turned career changers into productive developers. At Smart Pension and now TryHackMe he’s balanced line management of teams of 5–12 with technical guidance across departments, promoting pair programming, mob reviews, and improved developer experience. A long-time advocate for continuous learning, he still volunteers as a coding coach and has a practical history of rebuilding monoliths into modern frontends and middleware-driven architectures. Notably, he thrives at the intersection of code quality and delivery velocity, ensuring refactors yield measurable business value rather than just technical wins.
