Developers with Pivot Skills

I create worlds in words, code, and empathy. Words to make complex concepts simpler to understand. Code to build solutions and empathy to always put me in my user's or audience's shoes.

My background is in linguistics and teaching languages, but my passion has always been tech. I was a coordinator for a regional education program for 3 years, which helped develop people and leadership skills. I've been teaching myself web development for almost a year, and I've made a lot of progress. I'm really excited to learn even more!

RoR backend development for 2 years now. Middle-aged guy who left his life career to make a living out of programming... all in all: pursuing my dream!

I'm currently looking to get into a Ruby on Rails position. I'm wanting to transition back to an individual contributor and I believe Ruby on Rails is my path back to it.

Hello, World! I'm a front end web developer with some web content producer experience. My "before" career path included roles such as elementary school librarian, front desk person for an outpatient laboratory, and administrative assistant. I self-directed my tech learning with community resources and then was accepted to the San Diego Workforce Partnership's Income Share Agreement program to earn my Front End Web Developer certification. I was able to work for a short time as a web content producer before my position was eliminated. I'm looking to find a new role to support my team and grow as a developer.

Aside from my technical abilities, my core strengths are curiosity, empathy and tenacity. These were evolved after 6 years in a sales role, but help me daily as a SWE. CURIOSITY- when faced with a new challenge my mindset is not >I don’t know>, it is “I don’t know this yet”. EMPATHY- I learned to listen, not to reply, but to understand the needs of my customer (or user, project manager, colleague etc). TENACITY- I accept that failure is part of growth. It may be painful but it is the only way to improve.

I am Ruby on Rails Developer looking to transition over from Support Engineer to Software Engineer. I have experience with Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and working remote. While I do not work full-time as a Software Engineer, I have gained my experience by attending a Bootcamp, freelancing and working on my own app, which is Sharedwise. What I lack in experience I make up in determination and focus to learn what I need to know to provide value to my customer and team.

I had over 10 years of Mechanical Engineering experience in Manufacturing and Product Development before moving into a Business Analytics/Data Engineering role, and I have been using code to solve problems for the last 3 years.

Enthusiast of all things in the water. Engineer. Active, excited.

I did graphic design professionally for 20 years before a series of events tore me down. As part of my healing I took a chance on myself, my future, my family and entered a development bootcamp. Not knowing where it would lead or even if I could do it. Months later I graduated knowing how to code, how to think as a developer and knowing a TON about myself. I don’t know where this journey will go but I know I am in it to build tools to help lift others up. My family has been so supportive I’m ready to be able to help us level up too.

I have spent many years in the hospitality industry, most of which was in the bar and restaurant world. My favorite part of those jobs was having the ability to fabricate and create something that would bring joy and happiness to a guest. I have been a valuable asset to virtually every employer I've had over this part of my career. I'm looking forward to fulfilling a similar role in the tech sector, this time building and creating tools to make business decision-making better.

After working for 4+ years as a healthcare worker, I decided to break into the tech industry and switch careers to become a software engineer. Tech has always interested me whether it be video games, social media, computers, or cell phones. I am very excited knowing that software engineering as a field is constantly growing and changing and I plan on being a lifelong learner in this career.
