Ethan Simmons

With over 8 years of experience as a full-stack software engineer, I specialize in Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, and cloud technologies like AWS. My passion for test-driven development and object-oriented programming drives me to build scalable and robust web applications. My background in acting enhances my ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, allowing me to mentor junior developers and lead engineering teams successfully.

Throughout my career, I have optimized performance and solved complex challenges, particularly in fast-paced environments. At Cognizant, I designed and implemented RESTful APIs, developed full-stack applications, and led the integration of various features, significantly improving operational efficiency. My commitment to enhancing user experience is evident in my work with intuitive front-end components and optimizing SQL queries, which resulted in a 40% reduction in response times.

I thrive on tackling ambiguous problems and enjoy fostering a collaborative work environment. My experience mentoring junior developers has not only improved team productivity but also cultivated a culture of knowledge sharing. I am dedicated to delivering customized solutions that enhance client satisfaction and foster long-term partnerships.
