About

I'm all in for working full-time and can even adjust my sleep schedule to match yours if needed (I'm a night owl anyway). Trust me, keeping clients happy is like keeping a plant alive - it takes effort but it's totally worth it. And I've got a green thumb when it comes to client relationships! I've been coding since before I knew what "coding" meant (I was hacking my Tamagotchi in grade school). So, working with remote clients using agile methodologies is like second nature to me. It's like riding a bike, except the bike is a computer and the road is the internet. Let's team up and make some awesome software together!

FULLSTACK DEVELOPER(REACT, GOLANG) - CONTRACT

I was responsible for building and maintaining web applications using React and GoLang. On the frontend, I used React to create reusable components that were easy to maintain and update. I also worked with Redux to manage state across the application and ensure consistent behavior. On the backend, I wrote server-side code in GoLang to handle requests from the frontend and interact with databases and other APIs. I used Gorilla Mux to create RESTful APIs and integrated with PostgreSQL and Redis to store and retrieve data. I also implemented authentication and authorization using JWT tokens and OAuth2. Throughout the development process, I followed best practices such as writing clean, modular code and using Git for version control. I collaborated closely with the product team to understand requirements and translate them into technical specifications. I also worked with other developers on the team to review code and ensure consistency and quality.
