Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon Gibbs is a seasoned Java application programmer, engineering leader and entrepreneur with over two decades of software experience and a dozen years in senior roles building resilient, cloud-native systems. As co-founder of Agile Stationery and CyberSec Games he blends product strategy, technical writing and hands-on engineering—designing eCommerce platforms, AWS deployments and workflow tools that bridge developer workflows with physical products. At multifi and MOO he led microservices, observability and performance efforts, shipping Spring Boot services, Vaadin front-ends and Elastic logging while improving Core Web Vitals and CI/CD throughput. He is comfortable moving between code, architecture and people leadership—running onboarding, incident response, architectural reviews and threat-modelling workshops using the Elevation of Privilege game he helped propagate. Known for pragmatic automation and a talent for translating messy stakeholder needs into repeatable technical workflows, he also pairs front-end React/TypeScript work with deep Java backend expertise. Based in London, he quietly combines entrepreneurial curiosity with a track record of operational improvements that save teams measurable time.
