• Senior Software Engineer

  • Apr 2021 - Dec 2021

  I've been involved in creating a handful of React apps for RecoveryLink from the ground up. This included the full product SDLC, from requirements analysis all the way through development to support and maintenance. Some of these apps also required a back end service and database, for which I usually use C# .Net Core and SQL Server. This client also utilizes Google Cloud Platform for hosting, so I had to get into that as well.
