About Brett Davies:
A highly motivated, competent PHP developer. Keen to learn new skills and technologies and solve interesting problems. I spent over 10 years as a teacher specialising in ICT and computing. I changed careers during lockdown and work full-time for a software company in a non-technical role. I also run my own software company developing applications for small businesses.
I am located in the UK, but plan to move to South Africa on a spousal visa by mid to late 2023.
Experience
I develop bespoke web applications for small businesses with an emphasis on simplicity and usability.
- Developing PHP based websites using an object oriented approach
- Working with PHP frameworks such as Laravel and Symfony
- Building workflows through a system based on user stories
- Using modern toolchains (e.g. Composer, Docker, Git)
- Working with UI libraries (e.g. Bootstrap, jQuery)
- Developing framework free applications using ES6
- Test-driven development and unit testing using PHPUnit
- Back end development using PHP/PDO and MySQL
- Building a RESTful API for services
- Efficient (DRY/SOLID) approach to solving problems
