Statamic Partner · Freelance Developer & Technical Consultant
Jonathan Carey
Crafting content-managed websites, bespoke web applications and email campaigns with practical technical leadership and a sharp eye for UX. Based in Norwich, UK.
Expertise
I help agencies and businesses plan, build and improve digital products that are easy to manage, resilient in production and clear for the people using them.
Design & user experience
I bring a design-aware development approach, shaping responsive interfaces that feel intuitive, accessible and appropriate to the audience.
Front-end development
HTML, CSS, modern JavaScript, React and Tailwind CSS are used pragmatically to create fast, accessible and maintainable front-end experiences.
Comprehensive digital solutions
From support, SEO foundations and performance tuning to digital strategy and complex web architecture, I focus on work that keeps delivering after launch.
Selected Work
A mix of recent public projects delivered through Overflow Hidden, Statamic support engagements and earlier agency work. The recent projects reflect the build, extension and maintenance work I take on now; the older examples add a flavour of the larger campaigns, platforms and interactive email projects I've helped lead.
About
I'm a freelance developer and technical consultant with long experience shipping complex digital work and, just as importantly, helping teams create the conditions to do their best work consistently.
Through Overflow Hidden I take on a small number of freelance and consultancy engagements, often alongside existing leadership structures. That usually means helping agencies and in-house teams stabilise fragile platforms, reduce technical debt, and make sound calls on architecture, tooling and long-term maintainability. I still enjoy getting close to the code, but my real strength is knowing when not to: reviewing architecture, mentoring senior developers, and helping teams make sound, maintainable decisions.
Different projects need different working relationships. If you want extra senior capacity inside an agency, start with For Agencies. If you are commissioning work for your own organisation, start with For Businesses.
As a Statamic Partner, I work across Statamic, Laravel, WordPress, React and high-performance HTML email, with a particular interest in accessibility (WCAG), developer experience, and the thoughtful, sustainable use of AI in delivery workflows.
My work has been recognised by leading service providers including Campaign Monitor, who interviewed me about pioneering interactive email campaigns. If you're looking for someone who can lead without drama, simplify complexity and deliver reliably, we'll probably get on.
Outside client work, I'm building a small progressive web app to help people with aphasia communicate with dignity and familiarity — a quietly personal project inspired by my father.
