Senior🎓
Top SchoolCraig Wardman is a software development consultant and Managing Director with nine years of consulting experience and a 20+-year practical background in building cloud-native, event-driven systems. He specialises in greenfield projects from architecture through delivery, favouring C#/dotnet backends, Next.js/React frontends, serverless microservices, and pragmatic DDD practices. Comfortable across Azure and AWS, he routinely designs high-performance APIs, event pipelines (Kafka, SNS/SQS, Event Grid) and CI/CD/GitOps workflows while also authoring documentation-as-code with C4/PlantUML. Craig blends hands-on coding with technical leadership—mentoring teams, defining standards, and taking POCs to production—and has repeatedly delivered multitenant web platforms and high-throughput search/pricing engines. Based in Wakefield, UK, he runs Pragmatech and brings a developer-first approach to solving operational challenges and performance bottlenecks that often go unnoticed until at-scale.
