Hi, I'm Ronan,
& I make websites.
Originally from 🇮🇪, based in 🇳🇱, I'm a versatile full-stack developer, manager, CTO and Technical Lead with over 15 years experience developing, scaling and optimising large scale websites and apps. My current favourite tools/weapons of choice: Next JS/React (Typescript), React-Native, Craft CMS, Python, Laravel, Supabase, PostGres, Node JS and Tailwind...to name but a few.
I'm also the founder of busylittlepixels - a software development company based in Amsterdam, and creator of Ticketbird - an Event and Ticket management platform, AI assistant and mobile app.
Skills and Experience
I am a highly experienced Developer, former CTO, Manager, Tech Lead and Cat-Valet. For over a decade, I have been honing my web development and team building/management skills, whilst working with multiple large companies and brands - primarily in the advertising, events, media, recruitment and ecommerce spaces - and formulated web and digital strategies for huge audiences.
Basically, I love building websites and mobile applications. I'm a huge proponent of headless development and an ardent supporter of the mighty Liverpool FC.
Some of my work
Project/Team/Workflow management for the fastest growing tech company in The Netherlands, Germany and France. Architected and lead development of Picnic's unified recruitment site. A headless instance using NextJS.
