Senior🎓
Top SchoolTim Squires is a seasoned Solutions Architect with 11+ years of hands-on experience designing and delivering high-volume web systems using Scala, Java/J2EE, Wicket, Spring and Hibernate. He has repeatedly combined senior engineering and technical leadership across government and private sectors—most recently shaping API and platform architecture for HMRC and DEFRA while advising teams at Equal Experts and Registers of Scotland.
