I am an experienced software engineer who cares more about quality over quantity, more about meticulousness over hastiness.
Over 8 years of experience has given me lots of chances of self-improvements, where I have grown to be a qualified developer myself and an efficient team player.

My strongest tech skill goes for Javascript, React, Typescript, Nodejs and other similar frameworks/libraries. I have mostly worked in team environments and have quite a good experience with Agile methodologies. I also managed small teams of developers for a few times.
