What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote position that allows me to contribute to impactful projects and further develop my skills in a collaborative environment.

I am a results-driven Full Stack Engineer with over 7 years of experience in designing and developing dynamic web applications. My expertise spans across various technologies including JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and Node.js, allowing me to create high-quality software solutions that enhance user experience and drive business success.

In my most recent role as a Senior Full Stack Developer at Pond, I developed and maintained web applications that improved user engagement by 30%. I have a proven track record of collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver projects on time and within scope, while also leading the integration of third-party services to enhance application functionality. My commitment to quality is reflected in my implementation of automated testing procedures, which significantly reduced bug reports and improved code quality.

Previously, I worked at Baidu, where I developed scalable web applications and RESTful APIs that improved application performance and reliability. I am passionate about continuous learning and growth, and I am currently seeking a remote position where I can contribute to impactful projects while further developing my skills.
