Liam Killingback
Software Engineer

I’m a full-stack developer who used to be an electrician—now I debug code instead of circuits. I build web apps with Phoenix and Elixir mostly, but dabble in others like PHP, NextJS and REACT.

Hey, I’m Liam, a full-stack developer who used to wire houses but now wires up web apps. After years of fixing electrical issues, I decided debugging code was just as shocking—minus the actual electrocution. These days, I’m building things with PHP, Phoenix, Elixir, and whatever else makes the internet work. When I’m not coding, I’m learning Japanese (日本語はむずかしいですね), so if you ever need a website or a slightly awkward conversation in Japanese, I’m your person.

I am a passionate software engineer with skills in Elixir and REACT. With a focus on delivering scalable and maintainable code, I enjoy transforming complex problems into elegant, efficient solutions. My primary stack includes languages like Elixir and Javascript. I also have a deep understanding of frameworks such as Phoenix and MERN.
