Lead Web Developer

HSBC

  • January 2017 - February 2017
  • London, UK
HSBC
Role overview
  • I was hired by HSBC to bring to life a conceptual project, in the form of a fully working prototype. The project was an XHR driven interface, integrated alongside a fully functional API, built to be responsive across a number of breakpoints. Once the prototype was completed and the concept was successfully proven to the relevant business units, it was handed over to an existing development team to drive the longer-term piece of work forward.

Martin is an exceptional lead web developer, very passionate, extremely focused in his approach to his work with a remarkable attention to detail. He was able to jump in on a very complex project, communicated efficiently technical blockers and delivered creative solutions. He gave excellent feedback to the UX/Design team, took active interest in the overall development process and wrote clean, well documented and highly maintainable code with an end-result that always has been better than we had imagined. I was glad to work with him and would be happy to do so again -- Highly recommended.
