Being able to directly interact with users of the product that I work on is important to me.
+
+Skillset
+
+ I would classify myself as a fullstack developer.
+ Frontend work, networking, backend, infrastructure, and database management.
+ My interests are user focussed design, accessibility, sustainability, and security.
+ I prefer using open source and established tools over proprietary or new things.
+ I prefer using programming languages as is without frameworks, ideally minimizing dependencies.
+
+
+ Infrastructure wise working at Amazon has tought me a lot about the AWS set of tools.
+ On my own I am working to learn more open alternatives for infrastructure management (docker and ansible currently, kubernetes and opentofu next).
+ I run my own server (both a physical one at home and in the cloud) to host services that I use and learn + experiment.
+
+
+ Most of my daily computing is done on the Linux operating system for the last 5 years.
+ This useful in that I am comfortable working on servers (most of which run Linux).
+ For work I have been using a Mac, so my comfort on that OS has grown significantly.
+ Have not used Windows in a few years, last used in Windows 10.
+
+
+ Familiar with the standard Microsoft 365 suite of products (excel, powerpoint, word) and open source alternatives through LibreOffice.
+
+Programming Languages
+
+ - Java: Have been working professionally in Java for 3 years now, very comfortable with the language
+ - Javascript/Typescript: Have been working professionally in JS/TS for 2 years now, very comfortable with the language
+ - Rust: Has been my primary language for personal projects for a few years now. Would love to use it professionally
+ - Go: Currently learning
+ - Python: Language that I started learning with, have not used regularly in a few years but familiar enough to get back up to speed quickly
