📖 Summary
I like to make things, usually on the web, that make life easier and world a better place. I've worked with the entire web stack (i.e., Hadoop/Pig → SQL → web framework (rails/sinatra/django/express) → js/css/html). I've worked on projects exclusively using Pig/Hadoop in the backend, as well as projects using javascript/css on the front. Currently, I like JavaScript a lot more, and firmly believe in Attwood's Law. I've also built things in Java, but am a bigger fan of dynamic languages. Always open to discuss technology, startups, economy, and the like. Specialties: - JavaScript: node.js, coffeescript, JQuery, socket.io, Faye, Backbone, Ember.js, d3 - Ruby: Rails, Sinatra - Web: HTML5, CSS (LESS, SASS) - Java: Spring, Hibernate - Others (significant experience): Swift, PHP, Perl, Python (Flask), SQL, Lisp, C++ - Distributed: Apache Hadoop, Pig - Design: Photoshop, InDesign, Flash Builder Other interests: AI, mobile applicationsSoftware Engineer @ From April 2015 to Present (7 months) San Francisco Bay AreaSenior Software Engineer @ I worked on Twitter's advertising platform with the revenue team.
