Mike Thomas – Web developer and tech lead

Who I'm looking to work with

Small businesses or entrepreneurial individuals who are looking for long-term technical business partners or systems support.

While it's a privilege to be able to build anything, I'd like to meet people outside of the development community in order to help realise fresh ideas, products or services.

I can provide ground-up consulting on domain names and DNS, product development, content-management, hosting, security and GDPR compliance. I've recently specialised in developing job board systems and applicant tracking system integrations in the employer branding sector.

• Proficient with Linux, DNS, PHP, MySQL/Maria DB (Laravel, Lumen, MVC frameworks)
• Web app design and build (CMS, job boards, subscription services etc)
• Infrastructure and orchestration experience (Puppet)
• Cloud and services management; Rackspace, Linode, AWS, Azure
• Maintenance and monitoring management; Icinga, UpTimeRobot/Pingdom
• API build and consumption
• HTML, CSS, JS, and various associated compilers
