I build software that works beautifully — front to back.
I’m Aury, a Hull-based Software Manager at The Powerplus Group who also runs Extra Web Solutions. I design, build and lead the delivery of fast, accessible web products — from .NET and Node.js APIs to React front ends and WordPress.

01 — What I do
Full-stack range, with a designer’s eye.
I move comfortably between server, browser and inbox. That means fewer hand-offs, faster delivery and products that feel as good as they perform.
- 01
Backend & APIs
.NET Core and Node.js services, REST and GraphQL APIs, scheduled jobs and third-party integrations — secure, observable and easy to hand over.

03 — How I work
Remote-first, built on three simple rules.
Four-plus years of remote delivery taught me that great work is mostly great habits. These are the ones I never skip.
- 01
Communicate constantly
Short, frequent updates beat long silences. Talking early and often with colleagues and clients stops small misunderstandings from turning into expensive mistakes.
- 02
Set daily goals
Every day starts with a short, written list of outcomes. It’s the single most effective habit I’ve found for staying focused and productive when working remotely.
- 03
Protect peak hours
Remote work lets me schedule deep engineering for the hours I think most clearly, and keep meetings, reviews and admin for the rest of the day.
04 — Experience
A decade across product teams, agencies and freelance.
