Celebrating 2 Years of Leeds Mobile

A look back at the first two years of Leeds Mobile, and a glimpse into what is coming in the future.

Luke Stringer has been professionally building software and leading development teams since 2012. He finds writing code and working with people just as fascinating and rewarding as each other. Luke lives in Sheffield and works for Tide as Head of Engineering for Experience Foundations. He has been running the monthly Leeds Mobile meetup since 2023. When not at work, he plays guitar, solves Rubik’s cubes, and enjoys spending time with his partner and son.
