About Me
Timothy White | Brighton, UK
Hi, I'm Timothy White, a full-stack developer specialising in full-stack web solutions. I have developed various applications, including those for drone, automotive, and camera calibration systems.
I’m also an instructor in the Army Cadets, helping young people develop their skills and confidence. Outside of work, you’ll often find me pursuing my love for bodybuilding and continuously working on personal development projects.
I’m always eager to take on new challenges and explore technologies.
Experience
Over the past few years, I’ve worked on a variety of exciting projects, building full-stack solutions for advanced automotive technology and drone systems. Here are some highlights of my professional journey.
Front-End Developer - Sycurio Ltd
Hybrid - Full Time
- Building and maintaining secure frontend solutions for eCommerce based products.
- Developing e2e & component unit tests for existing solutions.
- Improving app performance & bundle sizes (opted for vanilla solutions).
- Working in a small, agile team.
- Delivered my final-year University project to Sycurio - a full-stack solution (React.js, Node.js, and PostgresSQL) hosted on their servers (included project management, gathering requirements through questionnaires, and coding the solution out of office hours).
Software Test Engineer - Continental Engineering Services Ltd
Apprenticeship - Full Time
Although my title is **Software Test Engineer**, my experience has been focused on building full-stack web applications, whether it's creating responsive websites or developing desktop applications using Electron.js. I've had extensive experience delivering projects, in an agile environment, that combine both frontend and backend solutions.
At Continental Engineering Services, I have been deeply involved in developing full-stack 3D automotive simulations using modern technologies like React.js, Node.js, Three.js, Electron.js, and Python. These simulations help automotive engineers test and optimise vehicle components in a virtual environment, reducing physical testing and accelerating the design process.
Additionally, I've worked on developing drone and camera calibration systems that ensure high-precision data collection for automotive calibration projects. These systems are used in the calibration of autonomous vehicle sensors, ensuring that cameras and drones accurately capture environmental data and vehicle movement.
