I have a degree in computer science from the University of Washington, and have also obtained my CISSP and held it for 5 years. I have worked in the information technology sector for over 15 years in multiple niches: from hardware and software support at a local computer repair shop, to application support at an electrical utility. I have also worked as a product manager for a web-based data presentment platform in the energy sector, managing a team of 10 developers and testers while sculpting the product development and marketing path. Recently over the past year and a half I have been working solo in the e-commerce marketplace where I have delved into store configuration and management, and theme customization. I have also been focusing on app development for this platform using Django as a framework and using hosting options on Google App Engine and Heroku. I have a keen eye for product direction and aesthetics, and can see what others can not. I also have good copy creative and writing skills. I am a perfectionist, but I can also get the job done on time. I can help you through this whole process: from customer interviews; to building and launching your MVP; to helping you grow and expand with new features as you gain customers. I have done this with a number of customers, and would love to talk with you about how we can do it for your idea as well. My startup experience and proprietary boilerplate code means that we can quickly build out the boring things like user permissions, admin interfaces, payment gateways, etc. and get to the interesting and important features which define your product idea, so that we can test whether what we are building is actually solving your users’ problems. I use technologies like Ruby on Rails to build quickly; processes like Agile Project Management to ensure we’re always working on the most important things; and Test Driven Development (TDD) to ensure that what we are building works the way that we expect it to. When combined, this means that we can move fast without breaking things. WHAT TO EXPECT ? Receive a reply to your messages within 1 day. ?
