ABOUT ME
Software Engineer at Blitzm Systems
Software Engineer at Blitzm Systems

I'm a software engineer who specialises in web and mobile application development. My primary responsibilities involve client communications, software design, software implementation and support. This involves working with my clients to understand their business, and translate their expectations into a development plan.

When I am not developing apps or web systems for clients, I spend my time tinkering with the latest open source software. I'm especially interested in 3D software development and digital signal processing. Check out my twitter profile for updates of what I'm up to: http://twitter.com/jmhobrien

Feel free to contact me if you want to discuss work opportunities (or just want to talk about my latest hobby project).

I have built dashboards, single page apps and responsive web applications for almost every system I've built. Based on our API-centric design, these web applications hook into web systems using a standard API integration. I can provide UX/UI design and implementation in a variety of modern web stacks. My current favourite technologies are React with Sass for web apps.
