Kia ora,
I'm Adam Burmister –
Front-end Architect/Consultant.

Seneca.io visit
Founder and CTO
Beautifully simple board reporting for startups and their boards. The UI is built with AngularJS, powered by a Rails CORS JSON API.


Xero (application and homepage) visit

Xero is Webby Award winning Online Accounting Software.
As a pre-IPO employee (dev hire #4) I had input into frontend engineering practices, backend accounting system and marketing website development.


BBC Homepage visit
Lead Developer
I was honoured to have the chance to work on the largest UK website.
Brought in to inject a startup mentality to the BBC Public Service, I worked to re-architect a legacy CMS to a modulare, reusable, modern architecture, and lead a development team of 7.


BackChat.io
Founder, Product Development & Engineering
BackChat.io provides real-time message filtering as a service. Collect, filter, enhance and route messages from a wide range of real-time data sources.
As my first startup it's given me a wide range of skills: product conception, development, fund raising, marketing, sales, large contract negotiations, hiring, firing… every skill within the entrepreneurial sphere.


IronRuby in Action

I helped write a book on the Microsoft .NET Ruby dialect! Crazy, right?
