A little more about meOllie's role at Pixelbuilders as a web developer sees him taking creative designs and detailed specifications from our design and project management teams and making them a reality. He builds everything from the CMS entities to the front end CSS and he does it all by taking a slow, methodical approach. His tool of choice when it comes to doing his job is Visual Studio, but you'll also find him working with other platforms like Figma and Trello too. When he's not in the office, you're most likely to find Ollie enjoying the Formula 1, keeping up to date on all things football or potentially indulging in a six hour gaming session.
