Hello, I'm Ben Meyrick.
I'm a software engineer specialising in front‑end development. I build exceptional digital experiences using tools such as Angular, React, and NextJS.
What I do
UI development
With over 11 years of experience as a front‑end engineer, I build user interfaces that are performant, scaleable, and accessible. I have strong skills in vanilla HTML, CSS, JavaScript and TypeScript, as well as experience with frameworks such as Angular, React, and Next.js.
Backend development
Having experience in backend development using Node.js, C#, frameworks like Express, Next.js, and ASP.NET, databases such as SQL Server, Postgres/PostGIS, and Firebase, I can build full-stack applications and APIs, and communicate effectively backend teams.
Prototyping & user testing
I believe an evidence‑based approach is the best way to design and build products. Building prototypes and testing with real users helps to catch critical usability problems at the design phase, ensuring the end product is in the best shape possible.
Design systems
Having a design that scales with a business is crucial. By taking a systematic approach to design, combined with scaleable code, a design system helps your product to grow seamlessly.
