Software developer focused on APIs and web apps, growing into larger project leadership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a focused, highly competent software developer with 5+ years’ experience building software for different systems. I specialize in developing APIs and web applications, with an in-depth understanding of the internet-based applications’ project life-cycle.
I’m capable in all aspects of software development—from project planning to writing, testing, and debugging code, creating documentation, and offering support. In my roles, I tracked and fixed bugs, improved application load times, and worked closely with designers to deliver clean, intuitive interfaces.
I’ve built reusable code and integrated software components and third-party programs, ensuring technical feasibility for UI/UX designs. I’ve also developed and documented backend software, modified systems for performance and interface upgrades, and worked on software-hardware interface evaluation and installation planning.
I’m looking to grow as part of a team and eventually take on responsibility for larger projects. I’m currently seeking short-term or long-term contract positions to further solidify my software development skills.
