Coaching For Junior and Senior Developers

The number of developers in the world is growing and while you may have a strong team, there can be challenges to unlocking their full potential. Developers need to stay motivated, upskill, and especially for new junior developers, apply their technical skills in a business context. Whether it’s learning the fundamentals or more advanced topics, supporting developers with technical and organizational challenges, or using a new technology, my coaching services for junior and senior software developers are designed to help developers to reach their potential.

How does it work?

I can coach developers individually or as a team, giving an insightful space for questions and navigating challenges together. Meetings can be flexibly arranged to suit each developer’s schedule, and can be more or less structured depending on your unique goals and challenges.

I help junior developers to:

Apply and update what they have learned academically into a business context
To upskill more quickly and achieve their potential
To better manage their workload and project delivery
To stay motivated and inspired
Solve technical and commercial problems more effectively

I help senior developers to:

Get the best from their teams and projects
Better achieve secure, scalable and evolvable applications
Use the latest and advanced technologies that may be beyond the team’s current expertise
Stay on top of developments across the worlds of .NET, authentication, architecture, and cloud development

As a second pair of eyes, hands, and as a thought-partner, I help your team to discover how to improve their collaboration, project delivery, and upskilling efforts. My goal is to make the lives of your team smoother, more rewarding, and productive.

How does it work?

It all starts with meeting your team and getting to know your business and how the team works. What are the goals? How are projects and sprints managed? How is code reviewed and iterated over time? How is documentation managed? I’m able to tailor my coaching support to the goals and challenges that matter most. Whether it’s hands-on learning exercises, team-wide collaboration workshops, or developing best practices and optimizing processes, I can help your team to unlock it’s potential as a proven guide.
