Vetted Software developer in the United Kingdom

Hi, I'm Richard, and 54 year-old developer from Scotland, (right in the middle of Whisky country!). I enjoy working with people, helping them to understand their problems, and collaborating with them to design appropriate solutions. Over the decades I've worked on front-end, back-end, and everything (lots) in between. I'm fluent in Mac & Windows, either in the UI or on the command line. I *love* automating the boring tasks. I'm also adept at solving team and stakeholder management issues. My aim - be a little more Renaissance, one day at a time.

I have over seven years of professional experience building software in the financial technology, logistics, and education sectors. I love to participate in product scoping and technical design and see the impact of my product on people. I have built, maintained, and upgraded both monolithic and microservice-based systems that were built with JavaScript, java, and Golang. I have used SQL and NoSQL databases to architect solutions that process millions of data monthly. I have used RabbitMQ and Kafka for asynchronous communication between multiple services. I have worked in scrum and Kanban-based teams. I am a good proponent of clean code, documentation, and Test Driven Development. I get hands-on with DevOps/cloud tech tools as much as possible, and I am an AWS-certified developer associate and a Certified Kubernetes Application Developer. Looking forward to speaking with you.

I enjoy the entire process of designing the UI, playing with the UX to developing the application to as performant as it can be as well as deployment. Sounds like a lot but the process itself and discovering how each piece is interconnected has really helped me understand optimisation techniques and neat tricks.

How does Arc vet full-time & freelance software developers’ technical skills?

For Arc’s permanent (full-time) software developers, the process begins with a manual profile review and a quick chat or video self-introduction to assess their communication skills and eligibility to be featured to companies. Next, we let them choose either a coding challenge or a technical interview, both of which take about an hour to complete. If they make it past that, we’ll onboard them as a verified software developer, and they become eligible to get featured to companies who want to hire software engineers on Arc.

For freelance software developers, we first conduct a manual profile review, scouring their online profiles to make sure they have a solid technical background, work experience, and other elements. We then ask them to send a video self-introduction to assess their English, communication skills, and other soft skills important to effectively working remotely. Next, we hold either a technical interview or peer programming session to assess their hard skills, followed by a final candidate review. If everything goes well, we’ll have an onboarding call to welcome them onto the Arc platform.

Do you offer flexible hiring models, such as full-time, part-time, or freelance developers?

Arc offers a wide range of services for those who want to hire software engineers. Whether it's full-time, part-time, or freelance developers, you can find pre-vetted, interview-ready software developers worldwide on Arc.
