Hi. I'm Craig. I'm an experienced Senior Software Engineer, Systems Architect and Microsoft Certified Professional with a passion for software development.

I work primarily, but not exclusively, with Microsoft technologies and the .NET / .NET Core frameworks, leading complex and challenging enterprise software development projects to successfully deliver robust, secure, scalable and efficient software solutions, encompassing over 20 years of experience in the field.

I'm passionate about distributed systems design, CQRS and event sourcing and a proponent of domain-driven design to ensure that solutions are laser-focused on solving real business problems. I'm an open source enthusiast and advocate using the best and most appropriate tools available, providing for an effective and pragmatic solution that delivers genuine and quantifiable business value.

SEEKING WORK - Remote - A designer who can code! I have 14 years of experience in Fin-Tech, Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more. I've taken countless projects from 0 to 1 and worked for clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others. I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar and many others, I've worked with most web tech stacks out there. I pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products. Case studies are on my website: https://gilli.is.

I can provide the following for you:

- Product Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of your product, I can design it.

- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product. This is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the result since there is less wasted effort. I've worked with a wide range of frontend and backend technologies and can hit the ground running on new projects. I pick up new tech quickly, which makes it easy for me to adapt to different environments.

- Analysis — Your users, know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.

- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit, and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go for free.

I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.
