Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTom Gillard is a Senior Developer based in Melbourne with 11 years of front-end experience focused on HTML, CSS and JavaScript and a passion for component-based design systems, accessibility, UI performance and sustainability. He has a strong track record at SEEK and agencies, leading frontend delivery for major site launches and standardising build tooling and component workflows across distributed teams. Comfortable balancing legacy platforms and modern front-end practices, he’s delivered federated solutions integrating CMSs like Kentico and Umbraco while mentoring peers and running internal training. Tom favors pragmatic, people-centered engineering—building interfaces that genuinely improve user experiences rather than just showcase tech. He’s consistently driven process improvements (custom build tools, FED boilerplates) that reduce friction across teams. Outside of work he brings a long-term curiosity for making digital products more inclusive and efficient.
