Available for contract work.
I am available for contract engineering and fractional CTO work. If you are building something and need a senior React Native or front-end engineer on it, get in touch.
Seven years of React Native, React and TypeScript, most of it at startups and scale-ups. Two of those products are written up as case studies on this site, so you can see the work before you call.
Two shapes
EngagementsContract engineering
Three months or more, hands on the codebase. A mobile app that needs someone senior on it, a front end to take from architecture to release, or a team that is short an engineer who can do both.
Fractional CTO
Technical direction for a company that needs senior judgement without a full-time hire. Architecture, code review, hiring, and the decisions that are expensive to get wrong later.

What they said
Indeez“I’ve had the opportunity to work very closely with David, and he has become an enormously valuable part of our team at Indeez.
David is one of those rare people who can walk into a complicated situation, quickly understand what needs to happen, and simply start making things better. He is technically excellent, but his value goes well beyond technology. He’s an exceptionally strong communicator, a natural leader, and someone who works comfortably with people at every level of an organization.
He takes charge without making a production out of taking charge. He motivates people without putting unnecessary pressure on them, communicates extremely well, and has an easy confidence that makes him particularly effective in meetings, with teams, and with clients and partners. My team genuinely enjoys working with him, and I’ve come to rely heavily on his judgment.
David has also been extraordinarily generous with his time and commitment to Indeez. He’s someone I trust completely, both professionally and personally.
Whatever the role, if I were building a team and had the opportunity to put David Pears on it, I would.
