If your company needs software dev help, I’d love to talk to you! I have some amazing experienced US-based devs on the bench who are very good at using agents and have a high quality bar.
We are best at mobile and web and desktop apps, but can do much more than that.
Average experience level is 15 years. You’ll love working with them. Great people, excellent devs.
Appreciate retweets and any referrals!

“Randomness in CSS doesn’t have to mean throwing your design system out the window. It’s about little imperfections and playfulness. Maybe let’s even call it fun.”

“When the first car came out, consumers didn’t care about its color, or silhouette, because the competition was a horse. But now that cars have been commoditized, quality and details have become more important than ever.”
