Full Stack Developer

• Sep 2023 - Present

I am collaborating with a team of product managers, developers, and designers to build an application that helps career-changers manage their imposter-syndrome as they search for jobs in their new field. I am 1 of 3 developers on this team. We are utilizing agile methodologies and prioritizing accessibility best practices as we develop this tool. Excellent communication is essential since we are working remotely in real time and asynchronously.
