Tim Beadle is a pragmatic full-stack PHP developer with 11+ years building and optimising e-commerce and large web platforms, currently maintaining the Specsavers site at CGI after a long tenure with BJSS. He combines server-side experience in PHP, ColdFusion and ASP.NET with front-end expertise in React, vanilla JS and performance-focused tooling (CDNs, minification, Grunt/Jenkins), and is comfortable across SQL Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL. Tim has a track record of shipping MVPs, improving build/deployment processes, and bridging legacy systems with modern single-page apps and service abstraction APIs. As director of his own consultancy since 2014 he brings client-facing delivery skills and technical leadership, having frequently led cells, run standups and performed peer code reviews. A background in industrial design gives him an eye for pragmatic UX and maintainable systems, often surfacing small infrastructure tweaks that yield outsized performance gains.
