Senior🎓
Top SchoolStephen Rathbone is a Senior Software Engineer based in the East Midlands with 11 years’ experience building and operating web applications across startups and large enterprises. He combines hands-on PHP and Node.js development with deep DevOps/SysOps skills—managing Linux servers, provisioning cloud infrastructure (DigitalOcean, AWS, Vultr, Linode) and securing multi-server deployments. His work spans MVC frameworks, MySQL and MongoDB, REST/SOAP APIs, frontend HTML/CSS/JS and CI/Git workflows, and he has scaled sites up to over a million monthly uniques. Comfortable as a freelancer or embedded engineer, he moves between greenfield builds and maintaining legacy stacks, and often takes ownership of both application code and the underlying infrastructure. An understated strength is his recurring role as the bridge between development and operations, enabling reliable production releases across diverse hosting environments.
