I joined Newmarket Holidays in 2018 and have seen the company grow and change, much like my own role here. Over the years, I’ve been part of significant projects, including solely managing the previous Umbraco website and now working as part of a team on a modern headless setup with Umbraco backend and Nuxt.js frontend.

  • Full-Stack Development: Managed the complete codebase, encompassing front-end, back-end, database management, APIs, and data layers, ensuring seamless functionality across the system.
  • DevOps and Cloud Infrastructure: Maintained and developed the DevOps workflow, leveraging platforms like Azure, AWS, and Cloudflare to enhance deployment and system reliability.
  • Customer Experience Solutions: Designed and implemented end-to-end solutions, including a comprehensive NPS system and a customer experience platform, both featuring custom Azure Blob Storage integration, back-office management, and reporting dashboards.
  • Collaborating with stakeholders to align technical solutions with business objectives.
