Craig Lomax

I'm a mobile and full stack developer based in Wales, five years into Flutter and usually building the Laravel and AWS services feeding it as well. That means I tend to own a feature from schema to screen. Recently that's meant rebuilding an auction app from scratch and untangling the bidding engine underneath it. I studied Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, spent four years as founding CTO of an early-stage startup, and have only ever worked at startups.
