Ian Gregson

I have been supporting companies for more than 27 years, initiating and implementing software solutions, increasing organizational productivity, and adding value to my clients through high-quality work.Working in both freelance and permanent roles within the UK, Spain, the Republic of Ireland, and Holland enabled me to work with global teams. I was fortunate to work with creative minds who value scalability, innovation, and hard work. Additionally, I have worked with different technologies and currently I am concentrating on Golang, NodeJS with Typescript.Blockchain technologies take a lot of my time, being an avid enthusiast of Bitcoin and other blockchains as well as working within the industry. My exposure is not only limited to Bitcoin though, I also have some exposure to EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible blockchains, like Binance Smart Chain, as well as being able to work with Solidity.As a Polyglot developer and self-driven Technical Lead, I understand the value of open communication and collaboration within a team. I love working with a talented team, but I know that technical proficiency goes a long way when people are driven towards a common goal. I have collaborated with cross-functional teams in carrying process designs and architect solutions, enabling us to attain revenue goals. Helping in cutting down costs through agile methods and developing products that position the company ahead of its competitors – these are some of the things I do best.Some of my accomplishments throughout the years:• Increased efficiency in Technest by introducing the team to Monorepos (NRWL NX) and NestJS; migrated over to NestJS which is a framework for NodeJS. The team was able to develop diverse products in the same repo and made the management of various applications and microservices simpler. There was also no need to hire additional developers.• Launched the first cryptocurrency only (bitcoin) online gaming website (https://www.slots.com/) for The Workshop; led to increased sales and brand visibility.If I can support your team in any way, do connect with me.
