Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteve Butler is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience at Kyan, delivering full-stack solutions across React Native, Next.js, TypeScript, Ruby on Rails and GraphQL. He leads small cross-functional teams to build production-grade products—from a privacy-first, local-first React Native period tracker to a headless Next.js/Strapi platform for multiple Wella brands—while owning backend data layers, CI/CD and integrations. His career began in QA, and that tester mindset still shapes his approach to testing, migrations and what “done” means, resulting in reliable releases and thoughtful handoffs. Steve is pragmatic about tool choice, evidenced by evaluated vendor trade-offs (Strapi vs Contentful, Typesense vs Algolia) and building a custom Strapi–Bynder DAM plugin that outperformed an official alternative. Based in Rushmoor, UK, he thrives in product-focused agency work where adaptability across stacks and client domains is essential.
