Abel Jara

I'm a software engineer with 6 years of experience in full-stack development. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work on a diverse set of projects, from small-scale prototypes to globally deployed, latency-sensitive services that handle high traffic volumes. My experience includes: setting up microservices (and owning them), architecting REST APIs, database design, integrating internal and third-party services, conducting performance testing, writing automated tests for back-end and front-end (integration tests/unit tests), writing modular reusable front-end components, creating metrics/dashboards for service health monitoring, handling on-call responsibilities, and leading meetings with leadership/cross-engineering teams. I'm passionate about creating high-quality software that provides a great experience to the customer. I take pride in being a great communicator and collaborator, and I'm always excited to learn new skills and take on new challenges.
