@amirmoradi
Senior Application Developer at Baillie Gifford, delivering investor websites, a secure client portal, and fund-data services.
What I'm looking for
At Baillie Gifford, I develop software for public fund websites, a secure client portal, and investment workflows. I build headless Umbraco APIs and Next.js/React frontends, and deliver scheduled Oracle-to-SQL Server data pipelines.
I’ve modernised legacy applications and delivered fund ratings across data pipelines, APIs, CMS integration, and frontend behaviour. Earlier, at UK Data Service, I led a research data deposit platform and delivered thesaurus search services; I’ve also managed and mentored development teams.
