Lead Software Engineer Resume Seattle, WA - Hire IT People

SUMMARY:

Senior Full - Stack Software Engineer
I love to write code.
My dream job is a full-time programming gig that is 100% telecommute, living in an RV with a satellite Internet connection, roaming the country.
I’m a very strong technologist and a natural-born leader, but I try to stay humble and open to new and alternative ideas.
I don’t consider myself a “rock star” or a “ninja” -- just an excellent programmer with years of experience to offer.
I am passionate about technology, quality, and meeting the customer’s needs, whether that customer is internal or external.
I believe that my years of development experience, my natural instinct for leadership, and my strong voice for technological excellence can be an asset to any team.
I’m always excited to work with the latest technologies, and to learn new things.
I have a strong creative drive that leads me to write music (badly), draw (badly), write (very well), and sing (moderately badly).
I am very comfortable thinking of “big picture” issues of site design, including things like security, server load, latency/throughput, perceived responsiveness, and so on.
I understand how to weigh the pro’s and con’s of competing architectures, I know design patterns and antipatterns, and I know how to balance “ideal” architecture against business realities such as cost and development time.
I enjoy working with designers and product owners to create performant, dynamic, responsive sites using HTML/CSS/Javascript (and tools like Bootstrap and jQuery) or using client-side frameworks such as React, Angular, and Ember.
I have built websites using Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Python (Flask/Elixir), and many more frameworks.
I’ve worked with deployment and devops systems such as Ansible, Capistrano, Chef, and Puppet. I am very comfortable with SQL, NoSQL, and caching technologies in many flavors. I am a true full-stack developer.
