Zandré Broodryk
Even though I have only worked closely with Brendon for about 2 months his knowledge and passion for delivering only the highest quality of work has inspired and taught me much more than I can put into words. He was a very approachable team lead with plenty of colleagues from outside the team frequently also "misusing" this approachability and knowledge. Brendon has contributed immensely with implementing various improvements on, or even piloting new systems at codehesion that I believe will leave a lasting legacy, if not directly, then indirectly for many years to come.

My responsibilites at Codehesion can be split up in two parts. I started as a Frontend Mobile App Engineer worknig with React Native and then after a couple of months transitioned into a Full Stack Engineer working with ASP.NET Core, Ruby On Rails and React.js.Responsibilities:- Cross-platform mobile applications with React Native.- RESTful web services with Ruby on Rails which are consumed by mobile and web applications.- Continuous integration and deployment pipelines using Bitrise.- RESTful web api's with ASP.NET core - Entity Framework Core - Clean Architecture - Mediatr (CQRS) - IdentityServer4 (OAuth & OpenId Connect) - Identity Core - Hangfire - NSwag (Auto generated api docs and api clients)- React.js for building web UI's (Typescript)- Azure to deploy api's hosted in App Services. I played a key part in developing the standards/architecture to write mobile apps in a maintainable and scalable way. Codehesion is a consultancy which means there are a lot of apps that have the same base functionality. For example authentication with access and refresh tokens, registration, forgot password and profile management. To save time they have a template to bootstrap an app so that the developers can focus on the core functionality of the app. I am the author of the template that they currently use on all of their mobile apps.Codehesion is currently migrating their tech stack to use predominantly ASP.NET Core for backend development. I was the lead on the migration. I spent a considerable amount of time doing research on how to structure and build applications in a modular and scalable way.Overall I think the experience I gained at Codehesion would make me a very valuable asset to any organisation looking for an extremely productive and motivated developer.
