- February 2022 - September 2022
- London, UK
Role overview
- I worked as the sole Front-End Developer, working on a complete re-write of a platform, which focused on offering a dashboard-style set of screens showing complex datasets for investment portfolios for both individuals and companies.
- The nature of the data involved was often complex, as a result leaning on comprehensive use of AG Grid for tabular data, along with close to 100 bespoke written React components, utilising both Sass and TypeScript.
- Also of note within this project was the inclusion of react-hook-form, since there were around 50 forms, enabling authenticated users to add, edit and delete a whole host of data attached to their individual investments.

Recommendations
Ben StocktonChief Product Officer
Martin worked with us for around 9 months on a new user interface for our software product. We are a start-up, most of us having never worked in a software business before. Martin is a highly skilled front-end developer. We had many challenges on the interface design and development, but demonstrated his adaptability and experience in dealing with those challenges very well. He provides constant updates on his work, and tailors them to the needs of his clients. I would highly recommend Martin for any business (including smaller businesses like ours) who are in need of an experienced front end developer.

I had the pleasure of working with Martin on a recent project where he served as a React/NextJs contractor, and his work was exceptional. Martin brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the project, demonstrating a deep understanding of React and its related technologies. He was able to develop complex features and functionality with ease, using best practices and ensuring code quality and maintainability. Throughout the project, Martin showed excellent communication skills, keeping the team updated on progress and providing insightful recommendations. He was also able to work independently, demonstrating a strong work ethic and a high level of self-motivation. I was particularly impressed by Martins ability to work within tight timelines without compromising on quality. His dedication to meeting project deadlines while ensuring high standards of work was truly remarkable. In summary, I highly recommend Martin for any React development role. His skills, knowledge, and professionalism make him a valuable asset to any team, and I am confident he will excel in any position he undertakes.
