Full-Stack Developer in Wiltshire

I'm based in Wiltshire – that puts me within easy reach of Bath, Bristol, Swindon, Chippenham, and the M4 corridor, while also working with remote teams across the UK. Being outside a major city means lower overheads, more focus, and the flexibility to work on-site when it matters or stay remote when it doesn't.

I'm a full-stack developer with over 20 years' experience, mostly in Laravel and PHP. I work with startups, growing businesses, and development teams that need backend or full-stack help without the cost of a full-time hire.

Local Clients, Face-to-Face When It Helps

Wiltshire isn't a tech hub like Bristol or London, but that doesn't mean businesses here don't need good software. If you're running a company in Chippenham, Trowbridge, Swindon, or anywhere in the county and need custom software – a web app, an internal system, an API – working with someone local has advantages. Same timezone, no travel costs for meetings, and the option to sit down together when it helps.

I've worked with Wiltshire businesses on everything from bespoke business systems to integrations with third-party services. If you've outgrown spreadsheets or off-the-shelf tools, custom software might be the answer – and a local developer can walk you through the options without overselling.

Remote Work, UK-Wide

Most of my work is remote. I work with startups, product teams, and agencies across the UK – building backends, APIs, and full-stack features in Laravel and PHP. Location matters less than communication: clear updates, responsive to questions, and delivering what we agreed.

If you're looking for a freelance developer who can work with your existing team, contribute to standups and reviews, and ship code that doesn't need hand-holding, that's what I do. I've written about full-stack development for startups and hiring a freelance backend developer if you want a sense of how I think about this work.

Being in Wiltshire means I'm on UK time, overlap with European teams, and can get to Bath, Bristol, or London when an in-person meeting makes sense.
