Robert Castelo

20 years experience with Drupal as a backend developer, trainer, and consultant. My aim is always to produce high-quality code that fits stakeholder needs and is maintainable. Based in London.

I started using Drupal in 2003 while building websites for the UK Government’s Department of Trade & Industry. I want to share my enthusiasm for Drupal, and I became one of the founders of the UK Drupal community. I continue to be active in many community events and initiatives.

I now have 20 years of experience developing for Drupal, and I am the author of more than 60 contributed modules used on over 100,000 sites.

Keen to help large projects succeed with Drupal, I began providing specialised Drupal development and support in 2007 as Code Positive Limited and have worked directly with clients such as Worldpay, Sage Pay, BT, Xerox, Greenpeace, Nationwide and the UK Government.
