Samuel Wiseman

Engineering software that's simple, reliable, and built to scale.

I’m a full stack engineer with a strong backend focus — building APIs and services in Node.js and TypeScript that are clean, reliable, and built to last. I care about the details: good architecture, clear interfaces, and code that’s easy to work with.

Beyond work

Hobbies

I run, play golf, and go to the gym. Big football and F1 fan — follow both closely. I read a lot and I’m usually halfway through building something in my spare time.
