Senior/Lead dev specialising in clean, maintainable code and keeping tech debt low

I'm a full-stack Rails developer (although recent projects have concentrated on API-only backends with ReactJS front ends managed by different teams). I've been working with Rails for over 10 years (since version 3.x) and have specialised in making code bases that are easy for teams to read, understand and maintain. Key to those goals are: using standardised code styles (ensuring RuboCop and the team's practices are perfectly aligned) writing well-structured, easy-to-understand and fast tests constructive and collaborative code reviews ensuring documentation, from git histories to READMEs and other materials (online and offline) records useful, meaningful information that can be easily kept up to date and in sync with any code changes I've recently been adding GraphQL to my skill set, which also includes PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Redis and other languages (Swift, PHP, JavaScript, and more). On the front end, I have experience both with Rails' native toolset and with ReactJS, Next.js and React Native. I also have experience of platform-native toolsets such as SwiftUI to deliver applications that feel intrinsically like part of the user’s mobile experience. I've worked on projects of various sizes, from scheduling and booking software for a major tech training company to systems allowing TV distributors to sell thousands of hours of programming all over the world. Ideally, I'm looking to work on products with which I can feel personally invested – an exciting product or tech-for-good project would definitely suit me better than a fintech role.

Seasoned software developer with years of experience. My passion is for creating efficient and effective software solutions that help others.

As a developer, I'm proud of my journey and the skills I've developed along the way. It all started back in 2017, when I began teaching myself how to program. From there, I've been constantly pushing myself to learn new things and keep up with the latest technologies. In 2019, I landed my first job as a C# and .NET developer, which gave me a strong foundation in the fundamentals of software development. However, I wanted to explore other technologies as well, so in 2022, I switched to Ruby on Rails. It's been a thrilling ride ever since, and I've been fully immersed in learning and growing my skills with Rails. Recently, I had the chance to develop a complex web application from scratch using Rails. It was a challenging project, but I'm proud to say that I delivered a high-quality product on time and within budget. It was a great learning experience that taught me the value of careful planning and communication, as well as the importance of persistence and problem-solving skills. One of the things that really drives me as a developer is the desire to create software that solves real-world problems and improves people's lives. I believe that technology should be used for good, and that's something I strive for in my work. What sets me apart as a developer is my attention to detail and my ability to see the big picture. I'm a stickler for writing clean, efficient code, and I'm always looking for ways to improve my work. At the same time, I understand that a project needs to fit into a larger context, and I'm able to see how it fits into a company's overall goals and objectives. Overall, I believe that my skills, passion, and commitment to excellence make me an ideal candidate for any development role. I'm excited about the possibility of joining your team and contributing my talents to help your company achieve success.

My Developer Journey: From the moment I started coding, I was hooked. What began as a simple curiosity quickly evolved into a passion that has driven my career forward. My journey as a developer started with a fascination for problem-solving and an eagerness to build something from scratch. Over the past three years, I’ve honed my skills primarily in Ruby on Rails, but my adaptability has allowed me to swiftly pick up new technologies, such as Flutter, to meet diverse client needs. This blend of deep expertise and versatility is at the core of what I bring to the table. A Recent Milestone: One of my proudest accomplishments was leading the development of a complex web application for a high-profile client. Not only did I navigate technical challenges with ease, but I also collaborated closely with the client to ensure their vision was realized. The project’s success was marked by positive client feedback and a significant boost in user engagement, which reinforced my belief in the power of a collaborative and client-focused approach. Lifelong Learning and Passion: I’m constantly driven by a desire to learn and grow. Recently, I delved into the world of spearfishing, which, although not directly related to coding, has taught me patience and precision – qualities that I bring into my development work. My current read, ‘Million Dollar Weekend’ by Noah Kagan, is further fueling my entrepreneurial spirit, aligning with my long-term goal of launching my own SaaS startup. Unique Skills and Contributions: What sets me apart is my unique combination of technical skills and a genuine passion for innovation. I’m adept at picking up new tools and frameworks quickly, a trait that has proven invaluable in fast-paced, ever-evolving projects. My collaborative nature ensures that I work seamlessly with teams, contributing ideas and solutions that drive projects forward. Additionally, my experience in both small startups and larger projects allows me to navigate different environments and deliver results that exceed expectations.
