About

Senior web developer who owns features end-to-end — React, TypeScript, Next.js — and uses AI as a tool without handing over judgment.

Senior Web Developer with seven years of progression at Wilmington PLC — Website Support → Junior Developer → Full Stack Developer → Senior Web Developer. Owns web application features from requirements through solution design, implementation, testing, and deployment.

Strongest technically in React, TypeScript, and Next.js. Builds web applications used by accountants for professional training and courses. Trusted on technical decisions, architecture and planning discussions, code review, and unblocking colleagues on hard problems.

Uses AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, OpenCode, PaperclipAI) to move faster — while keeping responsibility for requirements, architecture, quality, debugging, testing, security, and whether the result belongs in production.

AI-assisted development

AI accelerates the work. Ownership stays with the engineer.

AI-assisted development is a core part of the current engineering workflow — as an implementation and problem-solving tool, not a substitute for judgment.

Test behaviour; chase subtle and unexpected bugs
Check maintainability, security, edge cases, and fit with existing architecture
Deploy the completed feature

Technical ownership stays with Tyler — requirements, architecture fit, code quality, debugging, testing, security, and whether the solution is fit for production.
