I worked on large-scale UK government websites used by the public, contributing across the full technology stack — from database design and backend services to frontend web development. The platforms needed to be highly reliable, secure, and accessible, with strong performance and uptime requirements due to their importance as public-facing government services.

My role involved turning Figma designs and user stories into fully functional features. I worked closely with designers, user researchers, project managers, and other developers to ensure features were intuitive, accessible, and aligned with user needs. A major focus of the frontend work was accessibility, ensuring services could be used by people with a wide range of needs and devices.

I owned features end-to-end, which included database changes in PostgreSQL, backend development in Java with Spring Boot, and frontend implementation in Angular. This also involved writing thorough automated tests and helping maintain the overall stability and quality of the platform.
