Let's build a brighter world together!
I love building effective software, teams, engineering culture, and software solutions that grow and inspire individuals, communities, and respective markets! With nearly 25 years in Software Engineering experience focused on full product life cycles and 10+ years of leadership as in both official leadership roles and leading in an individual contributor responsibility, I am confident that I can build the team, software solutions (code), and practices around what is needed for the business and more importantly execute with efficiency and accuracy.
I am most delighted to work with a smaller yet growing company to help scale the team and technology. I prefer teams that coach each other and don't rely on positional authority alone to drive changes in their markets; teams that are passionate about working as a coordinated unit leveraging diversity in thought and personality! Let's grow together!
I thrive on working with designers and business to have a streamlined and shared vocabulary providing components and solutions such as Storybook in a way that makes it easy for both design and business to discuss with engineering each of the components, screens, and organisms (Atomic Design term) with a since of shared ownership.
Technical
With React (Web and Native), Flutter, and Vue projects I've implemented predictable state machines and routing by leveraging Riverpod, Mobx, Redux, Vuex and making critical decisions to not depend on routing workflows (including using both Nextjs and Nuxtjs). I provide scalable value in building reusable components and tooling. While within Flutter Hooks are a debated topic I have consistently seen the value and enjoy using Hooks in both React and Flutter.
While I've built large scale enterprise solutions with Java / SpringBoot and Php / Laravel these days I see so much speed in development from leveraging Docker in AWS or serverless solutions with Firebase or GCP Functions.
Recently, I started an open-source side project that is a Logging Facade for Flutter https://docs.page/delvefore/crispin
