Bio
Pierre Thomain
I have been working with Aaron at MusicQubed where he was dev lead of the Android team. He is a passionate Android developer who takes a lot of interest in using the best technologies and design patterns to deliver flexible and reactive apps. We worked together to produce a white label music app supporting a range of different functionalities and appearances and his technical choices have been determinant in achieving the modularity required for such a project. He was also very involved in the business analysis and the communication between the client and server teams. I consider him a great mobile developer and a very pleasant person to work with.
Jan Tovarys
I worked with Aaron for over 6 months. He was one of the key members of the team. He’s extremely passionate about his work and drives to deliver the best possible solutions. He seeks consensus but goes out of his way to persuade his colleagues when he’s convinced about the right solution. He’s very friendly and will take initiative and help others where needed. I’m looking forward to working with Aaron again if I get the opportunity.
