Robin Balmforth Email & Phone Number

Robin Balmforth is a professional in their field. Colleagues describe them as "Robin is one of the most incredible developers I have ever worked with and I can say it was a real pleasure and privilege to work with him during our several years at Tesco. Robin cares deeply about not just the code he writes but the user needs and business objectives that his interfaces serve. Robin takes a deep interest in the context within which he is working, paying close attention to user research, stakeholder needs and all the information available. The quality and attention to detail of the interfaces Robin creates is second to none and he always has the underlying user behaviour in mind. On many occasions Robin came to me early on in the development process with edge cases or error states which I hadn't considered, and because of this we were able to design for them without delaying or negatively impacting the delivery. On a personal level Robin is a lovely, caring, funny, empathetic, intelligent and generous individual and is a pleasure to work with. He will be an enormous asset to any team. Grab him while you can. If I have any opportunity to bring Robin into a company I'm working at, I will take it!" and "I worked with Robin on the Tills project at Tesco for over 2 years. The day he left was a very sad day for us at Tesco. I can not recommend or speak of Robin highly enough. He is an extremely talented software engineer with all the desirable soft skills to match. He takes great pride in his work and can be trusted to own and deliver very complex features with cross team dependencies. During his time at Tesco he demonstrated a very calm and confident demeanour and no task was too big or too complicated for him. He presented an almost uncanny ability to react to changing circumstances. He was a huge asset to those engineers working around him and was the go to person for help with some of the more complicated areas of the project. I hope an opportunity presents itself to work alongside Robin again in the future. He is genuinely one of the best engineers I've had the pleasure of working with in my career."
