“I've had the opportunity to work with Chris in two roles in the past. Firstly alongside him as a joint developers where we tacked problems together and helped each other. I found him to be a great teammate, he was always there to pair on problems and to help out. Chris' code was always at a very high level, he is a careful, conscientious developer always striving to deliver the best solution he can. For Chris it's never about just shipping features out of the door - but delivering maximum value and questioning the 'why' before working on it. I later had the opportunity to manage Chris where he was an easy hire - for all the reasons listed above but also for the additional skills he'd learned since last working with him. Of particularly note was his ability to substantially improve the performance of our web-apps. He has exceptional analytical skills used to critically break down any performance issue and suggest a plan to remedy them. Chris was always very easy to manage - he'd previously been a principal engineer and so was very good at self-managing his time. He also worked well with the wider team and frequently took his initiative to pair with other team members to achieve the best solution. I would strongly recommend Chris for any frontend developer roles, or any role that requires conscientious, analytical thinking.”
