I am a frontend developer (though I've previously worked as a full-stack), working in javascript and python. I specialize in react (and its related frameworks like Gatsby), though in previous projects I have also built full systems based on, for example, React/GraphQL/Flask/MySQL.
I am interested in learning as much as I possibly can and increasing my fluency in the entire journey from security and dev-ops, to data, to performant APIs, to the frontend presented to the end-user. Because, at the end of the day, learning new things, building things, and solving problems is what gets me out of bed in the morning. I'm currently open for freelancing contracts or permanent positions in the Berlin area or remote, GMT+1 timezone.
I am interested in a challenge. After five years and a successful career as a mechanical engineer, I found myself no longer learning at the company where I worked, so it was time for a change. I had been interested in software development as a hobby for some time, so I decided to take the step and explore coding as a career- it has been a great fit for me. I love that it is a learning career- I am challenged to always stay on top of new technologies and expand and adapt my skills.
If you're looking to hire technical people, what they can ALREADY do is certainly important... but almost more important is finding someone curious, who has a passion to learn, and is not only willing but excited to face new challenges and solve problems.
To any recruiters reading this- I am not interested in relocating outside of Berlin, and I'm not a man (though auto-generated emails seem to think I am on a regular basis). Thanks!
My current stack is:
- react
- redux/mobx
- tailwind / Sass / material UI
- gatsby
- Auth0
- vanilla JS
- express JS
- node JS
- GraphQL
- Flask
- python 3
