Employment
Experience
- Hydra
A Node.js API back end that accessed and served multiple vast datasets (government data as well as custom-gathered data) that front-end developers could utilize to create rich and interactive applications. With heavy caching, it was able to support millions of users every month.
- Tseczka Frameworkhttps://github.com/AntJanus/Tseczka-Wordpress-Theme
A WordPress and CSS framework I developed in order to rapidly develop client projects as well as rapidly convert Photoshop/Illustrator files into premium WordPress websites. It handled everything from having a CSS framework to being SEO-compliant
- Ng-Reduxhttps://github.com/angular-redux/ng-redux
I took over active development and open source community management for ng-redux, an AngularJS wrapper for Redux. I rewrote majority of the code to provide more flexibility to redux/angularjs users and was able to collaborate with other developers in order to increase the quality of the project
- Foundation for Appshttps://github.com/zurb/foundation-apps
I developed an AngularJS architecture for this rapid application prototyping framework. I collaborated with Zurb's best designers to create an easy-to-use toolkit for designers to build interactive AngularJS prototypes that could also be used by developers to further build on.
- Tech.Pro
A social media website for developers to chat, ask questions, and look for work. I worked on an initial link-sharing feature and feed similar to how Reddit or HackerNews work which included backend work for storing the data, tagging, implementing search, and scraping submitted sites to retrieve an image, description, title, and other data for displaying to users utilizing C#.
I also worked on the voting part of the feature, structuring CSS for the entire site, and building KnockoutJS views to display the feed and the data. - PUCL Podcast Website
A niche podcast website that I fully redesigned from scratch, built in WordPress with a custom SASS/CSS framework I wrote on top of a custom WP theme, and deployed to a Digital Ocean server I created and supported for several years.
I worked on solving UI issues and performance problems present in the previous iteration to provide the best experience for visiting users.
