I've developed web APIs, a real-time push notification system, an Android app, two ClojureScript fronted apps, and reviewed a lot of code doing similar things. I've worked with Redis and PostgreSQL databases. Currently diving into Datascript and Datomic databases. I've debugged lower layers and libraries and worked with library code. I actually have more than 7 years experience in Lisp languages, such as Scheme.
