Hello, I'm Craig Fletcher.

You can call me on 07480924132, email me at hi@leakypixel.net, or check out what I'm getting on with at leakypixel.net.

I've been developing for the web for around 10 years and I'm still as eager as ever to push my skills and learn new things. I specialise in JavaScript - particularly React, but have worked with many languages, libraries and tools appropriate to the task at hand.

Experience

A short description of my last few roles and what they entailed. I'd be happy to discuss these further, but for now I'll keep it brief.

AKQA - JavaScript consultant (3 months, fully remote)

2019

Worked on a high-profile project for a well-known international clothing brand, using React, Netlify, Next.js, AWS lambda, nodeJS and AWS dynamoDB. Working remotely as part of a small, internationally distributed team to deliver a time-critical project with many challenges and tight deadlines.

Erlang Solutions - JavaScript consultant (9 months, fully remote)

2018 to 2019

Worked closely with a worldwide distributed team to develop a deliveroo-like service for fuel and related product delivery. As the only JavaScript developer on the team, I built a react and apollo based web application to interact with an erlang graphql service that was being developed in tandem by other members of the team.

The Co-op Group - JavaScript consultant (6 months, part remote)

2018

As part of the ventures team, built a new marketplace application using react for the frontend and python with flask for the backend. Worked in a team of 2 to get the project off the ground and into production. This project was more focused toward user research and constant iteration than technical challenges, something I really enjoyed.

Life's Great - JavaScript consultant (6 months, part remote)

2017 to 2018

Upskilled team into react development and assisted with building a greenfield project:

  • Upskilling team with limited to no prior knowledge of react through pairing, presentations and walkthroughs.

  • Built a new application to gather information from customers through a conditional, staged questionnaire with complex dependencies.

  • Various devops related tasks from scratch, such as docker scripts.

  • Advising management on various technical decisions vital for the company.

I'm not boring

I have quite a few hobbies outside of my development work, and try to keep myself as active as I can - especially during the summer, when I can get outside.

  • Rock climbing and bouldering are my big hobbies... though they don't look a lot different from the outside, there's quite a gap. I vary between the two, but practice indoors twice a week and get outside when I can.
  • Somehow I ended up being a Scout leader, too. I was part of the organisation when I was younger, and after a couple of years break, I went back to help out. It has greatly helped me in maintaining leadership skills, and organising larger groups of people.
  • I also spend quite a lot of my free time tinkering and working on personal projects, such as building raspberry pi based camera systems, monitors, or arcade systems.
  • To keep up with the fast-paced world of development, I spend quite a lot of my free time reading, or listening to podcasts. Some of my favourites are 99 percent invisible, bad voltage and project bouldering.
