  • So You're Looking for a Full-Stack Web Developer?

    Are you a close-knit, innovative organization with a focus on creating exceptional web experiences? Does your small team culture allow for open communication, creative problem-solving, and the freedom to make a meaningful impact? Do you value quality code, clean design, and efficient development practices? If so, please keep reading and get in touch if you think I would be a good fit for your organization and vice versa.

    When

    I am giving myself a little time to recharge, but please go ahead and reach out. I am happy to start conversations and interviews now.

    Where

    I am currently based in Pensacola, FL and plan to stay for at least a few more years. I am exclusively looking for jobs that will allow me to work remotely for the foreseeable future. I will consider visiting your office and traveling to meet in-person.

    About me

    Check out my LinkedIn for an overview of my work experience, education, and more.

    I am a passionate web developer with over 10 years of experience who thrives in small, collaborative environments. I have a penchant for learning new things and a wide variety of experiences with different technologies. I currently enjoy building elegant, intuitive web applications with the TALL stack (Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel, and Livewire).

    I am known for my pragmatism, and people that work with me trust me to make good decisions that balance technical quality and business needs. In addition to my strong technical skills, I bring a wealth of non-technical skills to the table that I developed over my years working in the retail and wholesale spaces.

    What I'm Looking For

    I'm seeking opportunities to join a small- to mid-sized team of talented developers, to contribute my expertise in the TALL stack or a similar set of technologies. As a small team, you would ideally value individuals who are not only proficient in their technical skills but also possess excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset. The main things I am looking for right now are:

    • Good People: I believe the people you work with and the culture you celebrate are the beating heart of any organization. I enjoy working in a close-knit team where contributions are recognized and valued.

    • Interesting Problems: I enjoy challenges that I can learn and grow from. These could be complex customer needs, technical problems, engineering practices, or some combination thereof. I want to contribute to the full development lifecycle, from brainstorming and ideation to implementation and deployment.

    • Work/Life Balance: It's crucial to find harmony between your professional and personal aspirations while taking care of your well-being. I'm looking for flexible hours when needed and the ability to work remotely.

    What You're Looking For

    Here are some key qualifications I hope you're looking for:

    • Collaborative Mindset: You cherish a team environment where everyone's voice is heard. Strong interpersonal skills, effective communication, and the ability to work collaboratively in a small team setting are all important to you.

    • Passion for Clean Code: You appreciate developers who take pride in writing clean, maintainable, and efficient code. You want to see attention to detail and commitment to best practices.
