I'm Steven McArdle, a seasoned Full Stack Developer and Technical Architect with over 40 years of experience, specializing in designing, integrating, and securing high-volume transaction environments across Banking, Consumer Retail, Telecom, and Government sectors in New Zealand, the UK, and Europe. I excel in both leadership and hands-on roles, and I am comfortable guiding large teams as well as delivering tangible software solutions. I have a strong track record in recruiting senior developers and mentoring juniors, with a focus on software and integration patterns and agile methodologies. I prefer remote work and contract or full-time engagements. In recent years I have focused on designing, developing, and deploying microservices on AWS using JavaScript and TypeScript, particularly in primary care healthcare contexts. I currently serve as CTO of a Primary Care Technology company in New Zealand, bringing patients and providers closer together. My experience includes building on AWS, Docker, HL7 FHIR integrations, and modern front-ends (React, React Native, Angular). I have led enterprise architecture efforts and managed teams up to 100 developers on large-scale projects including EU initiatives.
