I build software that solves real problems — and I look for the problems worth solving before I write the first line of code.
Founder of Yug Solutions, building GovBridge UK — a unified API gateway that gives developers one API key across Companies House, HMRC's Making Tax Digital APIs, DVLA, and Land Registry, instead of integrating with each one separately. Currently deep in HMRC's MTD API surface, mapping the undocumented gaps between what the docs say and what actually works.
By day, I'm Senior Developer & Team Lead at Datascope Systems in Eastbourne, UK, leading a team of 5 while staying hands-on across architecture, delivery, and code quality.
One API gateway unifying Companies House, HMRC MTD (VAT, Income Tax, CIS, Property Business, Partner Income), DVLA, and Land Registry behind a single key, a single contract, and consistent error handling — 50+ endpoints across 9 data sources.
I write up what I learn as I go — the undocumented path mismatches, versioning quirks, and sandbox behaviors that don't show up until you're deep in it: 📝 What building against HMRC's MTD APIs actually looks like in 2026
