Clouds and Unicorns, But Mostly Clouds... Software clouds that is. I am a 100% full-stack engineer (as well as a manager of software developers) with broad talents and expertise including cloud deployments (from server configs all the way up to JS/CSS changes), automated software testing, mentorship, code review, and team building. I am especially drawn to software development projects that involve molecular biology though I have a wide range of interests. As a solid lead dev, dependable individual contributor, and strong team player, I am interested in being part of a group that’s making a difference. Here are some of the Non-Technical skills I would bring to your organization: --Active ongoing learner about technical trends, tools, and best practices --Superior written and verbal communication skills --Friendly and approachable team player --Ability to multitask --Hard-working and focused --Ability to successfully work with everyone in the organization to meet customer needs and specifications (project management teams/database administrators/system administrators/core systems developers/content teams) --Strong belief in producing tested products of high quality and supportability --Maintaining connections to the greater tech community --A sense of humor (appropriate to the workplace) that makes work more fun for everyone --Mentorship, training, and management of software developers And these are some of the Technical skills and Experience I would bring to your organization: Python, JavaScript (vanilla plus frameworks), SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL), NoSQL (MongoDB), Cloud configurations/deployments/monitoring (AWS, GCP), Version Control (Git), Automated Testing systems (CircleCI, TravisCI, Sauce Labs), Chef, Terraform, Serverless, Microservices, SOA, Java, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, PHP, Perl, HTML, XHTML, XML, LAMP, NGINX, Apache, Templating systems, Customer Relations Management/Project Management Systems (Waffle, Quickbase, Jira, Salesforce), and some limited experience with additional languages (Go, Rust, Objective-C, and C++).

We even saw a happy baby whale breach from shore while we were having lunch near the beach!]
