Bio
Arthur Littmann
It was a pleasure to spend 9 weeks with Samantha during the bootcamp at Le Wagon, her motivation and dedication to the program was impressive, often the first one in and last one out. This dedication added with the numerous hours of coding resulted in an awesome final project with the team she was leading and a perfectly delivered pitch on demoday. Overall Samantha's just a great person to have in any team, always positive and up for any challenge, that's one of the reasons why we've asked her to come back to Le Wagon after her bootcamp to be a teaching assistant for future students.

Dec 2020 - May 2022
Currently, I work as a Rails developer on our internal applications, implementing new features, such as automation of manual tasks otherwise done by customer support, and codebase maintenance. Additionally, I design solutions that optimise our current architecture. Recently, I have also taken over the responsibilities of the Product Owner and Scrum Master due to restructuring of teams. These responsibilities include the sprint plannings (both tech and product), backlog grooming, stakeholder reviews, and retrospectives. I work across both monolithic and microservice production environments using containerisation technologies, such as Kubernetes and Docker. Show less

Teaching Assistant

Jul 2018 - Nov 2020
I worked as a teaching assistant on Le Wagon's 9 week coding bootcamp, helping students solve challenging coding problems. Being a Le Wagon TA allowed me to solidify my knowledge of Ruby, RoR, HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Further, it provided me with the opportunity to debug code written in a variety of different styles.
