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

I'm a full-stack Rails developer with experience building robust, scalable products, whether as a Ruby monolith or with TypeScript/ReactJS frontends. I've been working with Rails for over 10 years (since version 3.x) and have specialised in creating and maintaining codebases 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 with both Rails' native toolset and ReactJS, Next.js, and React Native. I also have experience with platform-native toolsets, such as SwiftUI, to deliver applications that feel intrinsically 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 that enable TV distributors to sell thousands of hours of programming worldwide. 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.

Rails Dev Goes Off the Rails, Discovers Meaning of Life in Code

I'm a senior software developer with about 15 years of extensive hands-on experience and a demonstrated ability to deliver high-quality results. I have expertise in multiple cutting-edge web application frameworks, specifically, Ruby on Rails and Node JS. I also have good hands in frontend Javascript frameworks React JS and Angular JS. I've recently worked with the RightInbox, a high-ranking Productivity application / Google Chrome Extension with a 4.7 rating on the Chrome Store and a feature by Google, was a project where I started as a developer and grew to become the Engineering Manager. During my time on the project, I used my advanced knowledge of Node JS to enhance the product's functionality, increase its user base, and ensure its smooth operation. Simultaneously I developed the ZoomShift platform, a scheduling software built on Ruby on Rails. Here, my role was about active development however more focused on strategic technological choices and project delivery. Zoomshift is well-regarded for its efficiency and was even utilized during the US elections to manage the shifts of volunteers. I've worked with FindEmails, which finds and verifies emails while you are on LinkedIn or browsing the web with the FindEmails Chrome Extension.

RESTful API nerd

Fresh out of the army I decided to join Fullstack Academy's PERN stack bootcamp. About halfway through when we started getting freedom to explore more technologies and implement them in our projects I discovered Rails. Immediately I knew I had no more interest in pursuing a role as a JS developer and it's been full steam ahead for Rails. Now that I'm graduated and job searching I'm spending every day honing my Rails skills and learning all that I can. Recently I put my skills to the test for my final project for the bootcamp. Myself and five others were tasked with building a mobile app, which we decided to use a Rails API at my request. I was the only one comfortable with Rails, so the task of actually building the API was left to me. While the others were doing wireframes, figma mock ups, and starting to get the React Native app going I created the DB schema and built the entirety of our back end, from endpoints to devise user authentication. I've recently started diving more into Active Record and learning how to use associations to the fullest. It's made my work on my most recent project much easier than I thought it would be. I have an extreme passion for Rails and I'm learning every day. I'm confident that I will excel in any junior role I step into. I'm incredibly persistent and a self starter. If there's a skill I need to get something done that I don't already have, by the end of the day I'll have thoroughly researched it and began to figure out what I'm doing a bit better. Becoming a Rails engineer is my dream, and I'll do anything to make that happen.
