I started writing JavaScript three years ago and I've done all of the following: 1) Various full-stack applications written with JavaScript front-ends and NodeJS backends 2) Built this app in React Native: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hyperdash-machine-learning-monitoring/id1257582233 3) Worked on production backend NodeJS code-bases at Uber that serve hundreds of thousands of requests per second Here are some blog posts I wrote where I teach others advanced JavaScript: http://richardartoul.github.io/

I've been writing production Go software for the last 2 years. I've written: 1) A linter: https://github.com/m3db/build-tools/tree/master/linters/badtime 2) Backend production services at Uber that handle hundreds of thousands / million of requests per second. These services do everything from interface with Cassandra, manipulate images, and store time-series data in a custom database built from scratch in Go

I've been writing Python code for three years and in that time I've written: 1) The Hyperdash Python SDK which has been downloaded tends of thousands of times: https://github.com/hyperdashio/hyperdash-sdk-py 2) Production services at Uber using both the Tornado framework as well as the Flask framework. These services did everything from making API calls to other backend services, to handling security-sensitive flows like Login, Single Sign On, and OAuth.

I'm an experienced dapp developer who has built Ethereum Smart Contract based applications. Here is a blog post I wrote where I teach others how to do the same: https://medium.com/@richardartoul/how-i-built-biggestg-com-an-ethereum-dapp-4e7176d3920a

I've developed against production Cassandra databases at Uber and am familiar with how to model data such that it can be stored and queried from Cassandra in a fast and effective manner.

I develop, maintain, and monitor a variety of large distributed systems at Uber.

I've taken a wide variety of computer science classes, including: 1) Data structures and algorithms 2) Networking 3) Computer architecture (hardware/software interface) 4) Compilers and interpreters (I've written toy compilers and interpreters end-to-end) 5) Operating systems 6) Databases 7) Distributed systems 8) Concurrency (processes, threads, green threads, CSP, etc etc) In addition to the classes I took, I've read at least one entire textbook for each of the topics above (usually more) and very capable of simplifying and explaining those concepts to others.
