Brett Schaumburg
@brettschaumburg
Experienced programmer and full-stack developer focused on React, Node.js, and reliable delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m an experienced programmer committed to building and improving software through hard work, problem solving, and teamwork. I’ve spent decades working across development, consulting, and QA, including website creation, systems analysis & design, and front-end/back-end implementation.
Most recently, I updated my Agile React capabilities by earning a Full Stack Development certification from MIT (Oct. 2023–Aug. 2024). My full-stack focus includes React, Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB, with practical experience using REST API, JSON, GitHub, Postman, and modern deployment tooling like AWS and Heroku.
I bring a broad technical foundation alongside strong communication and delivery discipline. From freelance consulting (2008–Current) to roles such as V.P. of I.T. (2004–2007) and Java Software Engineer (including teamwork on deliverables and bug fixing), I aim to contribute as a dependable full-stack developer who can also support systems analysis, testing, and ongoing improvements.
