Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolStephen Johns is a frontend web developer based in Edinburgh with 11 years' experience building React single-page applications and data-driven visualizations (D3), backed by a strong C#/.NET and relational database history. He runs Middle Engine Software, helping businesses ship polished SPAs, and previously improved high-throughput backend systems—most notably scaling a music-content ingest pipeline to handle 80,000 tracks a day at Bloom.fm. Comfortable across the stack, Stephen applies agile and lean practices, CI/CD and automated deployment (ARM, PowerShell, TeamCity) to keep releases reliable. He brings startup pragmatism from co-founding AppAkin and a track record of mentoring and lifting team capability through code reviews and tooling improvements. An Open University computing graduate with a penchant for practical automation, he often combines front-end polish with backend resilience in production systems.
