Experienced & Empathetic Tech Lead • RuboCop Core Team Member

High response rate

Programming professionally for 20 years. I've spent the last 4.5 years as Backend Lead at Pexels, and previously held lead roles at HYP3R and TalentNest. Primarily interested in backend Team Lead or Engineering Lead positions. Looking for a fully remote role. I am very passionate about software engineering, writing maintainable, testable and clean code that follows good architectural practices. I began as a self-taught programmer as a preteen, and worked as a freelance developer through high school and university. That led to a career in multiple industries (including construction, applicant tracking software, social media and currently stock photography), and a fast rise from individual contributor to tech lead and beyond. In order to give back to the Ruby community, I began heavily contributing to RuboCop (a Ruby linter with 300 million downloads that is a key piece of the toolset for most Ruby developers), culminating being invited to become a core team member at the beginning of 2021. I have held lead seniority roles for more than 12 years. As a manager, I see myself as a developer advocate, and spend a lot of time focusing on the happiness and productivity of my staff. Currently I am the Backend Lead at Pexels. In this capacity at a small company, I have a wide variety of responsibilities, including: Architect, plan, implement, test and ship large complex features and build out process Help non-engineers plan, scope and estimate their projects and participate in organization-wide product planning Triage and respond to security issues in code and infrastructure, including running a bug bounty program Manage and mentor a team of backend engineers of all levels. Procure and negotiate with vendors, including saving the company tens of thousands of dollars in hosting costs Looking forward to hearing from you!

I am a skilled and experienced full-stack developer with expertise in Ruby on Rails, DevOps tools, and a talent for translating people's ideas into successful coding projects.

I have been working in the IT industry for over 16 years. My interest in computing started when I discovered that video games were essentially made up of text. I wanted to create my own video games, and that's what led me to the IT field. I started by learning about computer hardware and went on to complete a training course as an IT maintenance technician. I continued to develop my skills as a self-taught developer. Since 2013, I have been working as a system engineer with a development background. I have experience developing applications in Ruby and PHP, and consider myself a full-stack developer. I also have knowledge of various frontend frameworks. Since discovering Ruby on Rails, my skills as a developer have grown exponentially. I have completed numerous online courses on Ruby and Ruby on Rails, like Rails for Zombies by Gregg Pollack and many screencasts such as Rails Casts by Ryan Bates. Also, I have expertise in several DevOps tools such as Jenkins, Gitlab, Docker, and Ansible. I recently worked on two projects. One was a Rails application that used Hotwire and Turbo Frame with modals to interact with an Active Directory. This application allowed for tasks such as creating users, verifying last access dates, resetting passwords, etc. My other project is currently in progress and involves provisioning VMs on a vCloud environment using Gitlab pipelines also using Rails. I possess the ability to understand and translate people's ideas into code. I am able to help them choose the right options and make the best decisions for their projects.
