Software Developer
Based on the Isle of Man, I'm passionate about building efficient, user-focused applications that solve real problems. I enjoy working across the full stack, from crafting intuitive interfaces to designing robust backend systems. When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring the outdoors, walking, biking or snowboarding, reading about new technologies, or spending time with my family and friends.

Frequently Asked
The questions I'm asked most often.
Who is Mark Wade?
I'm a full-stack software developer based on the Isle of Man with 20+ years of coding experience and 8+ years professional. I'm also a co-founder of Tally Up Limited, an Isle of Man software company.
Where are you based?
The Isle of Man — a self-governing British Crown Dependency in the Irish Sea. My focus is predominantly on Isle of Man work, though I'll consider overseas projects for the right cause.
Are you available for freelance or contract work?
It depends on the job. Between a full-time role, a business, and a family, my time is limited — but I'll always read a thoughtful pitch and reply. The contact form is the way.
What do you specialise in?
Full-stack web application development. Frontends in React, TypeScript, Vite, and Angular; backends in Go, Node.js, .NET Core, PHP, and Python; databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, DynamoDB, and Supabase; deployments on AWS, Azure, Cloudflare, Digital Ocean, and Railway. I'm comfortable integrating AI features — OCR, natural-language queries, content generation — into production systems.
What have you built?
See selected work above. Featured projects include Tally Up (income and expense tracker for IoM sole traders), Arlo's Adventure (charity ticketing and merchandise platform), Manx Pregnancy Resources (AI-curated community directory), and the Isle of Man Weather and Jobs dashboards.
