Senior JavaScript Engineer

Tribal DDB

  • May 2011 - June 2011
  • London, UK
Tribal DDB
Role overview
  • I spent just under a month at Tribal building a highly interactive JavaScript overlay widget for the existing Volkswagen UK website, which offers the functionality of booking a testdrive from a range of different VW cars/models. Functionality was also built to support real-time (closest) dealer lookups as well as reservation slots in order to make the user experience as easy and interactive as possible.

Martin is a talented and self motivated individual. While working with Martin I was able to experience first hand his focused development and ability to explore the problem space. He was able to rapidly develop a solution and refine it to meet the current requirements.

Martin not only helped us deliver for one of our biggest clients but did it before schedule, to a much higher standard then most would and stayed in contact throughout the process. It is very rare to find all of these qualities in one of your candidates. If you do, rule of thumb is to make sure he doesn't need to work for anyone else. I lost that battle and am truly disappointed. I would hire Martin again without a seconds thought...
William GreenlyTechnical Lead
Martin already came quite recommended but he didn't let that detract from proving he could do a very good job on a relatively sharp project. Would hire again.
