I truly enjoy building software. Over the past 15 years, I've had the privilege of building many challenging and interesting software solutions. I have worked within large software organizations but also in small teams. In recent years I've often worked independently, either helping organizations kickstart new projects or building entire systems myself. Some of the things I've built: - Web application back-ends (Node.js, Python, .Net). - Responsive, accessible and progressive web front-ends (React, TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, HTML). - Secure and scalable identity solutions (OAuth, OpenId Connect, SAML, Auth0, Ping Identity). - Interactive data visualization systems (SVG). - Programs that integrate cool hardware such as infrared sensors, solar panels, touchscreens, wireless GPS units, NFC card readers and more. - Deployment architectures that autoscale in the cloud (AWS, Docker, GitHub). I believe that: - Quality depends on concise and structured communication. - The best way to learn is to produce working software (iterative development). - Staying focused only on what's most important is paramount to success.
