Chris Collins is a software designer and developer based in Dublin. He works directly with clients as an individual consultant, so there is no handoff chain between strategy, design, and delivery.
His background includes full-stack development, with a strong track record across product delivery, technical leadership, and mentoring. He often works in a fractional capacity inside existing teams, while also partnering on greenfield app builds when products need to launch quickly.
Originally from Charlottesville, Virginia, and now based in Dublin, he works remotely with clients across the United States and Ireland.
