A versatile, skilled and passionate python/django developer with an expansive experience, an urge for continuous development and an accomplished track record of implementing systems that meet/exceed user specifications.

Over the course of my career, I have had the honor of using the following tools extensively in a wide range of projects:

• south for schema migrations (with the exception of django 1.7, which comes with its own migration module)
• memcached for caching
• django REST framework for RESTful web services
• django-cellery for handling and managing asynchronous tasks, with RabbitMQ as the queueing service
• jquery for DOM manipulation and ajax requests
• twitter-bootstrap for fast prototyping

My experience revolves around creating web applications that are data intensive, and that process data from disparate sources, consuming services from REST APIs, coming up with simple, intuitive user experiences and writing concise, well-defined functional and unit tests, as a way to verify code quality and ensure strong validation of the underlying business logic. I have a knack for writing beautiful, idiomatic python code, and I pride myself on adhering to the principles laid out in 'The Zen of Python' by Tim Peters.  As a web developer, I also have experience in native javascript, jquery, twitter bootstrap, html5 and css3.

I have sufficient depth and breadth of technical knowledge to design and scope multiple deliverables across a number of technologies, strong analytical and problem solving skills and excellent communication skills.

Database Systems: Mysql, postgresql, Microsoft SQL

Version Control: Git (https://github.com/tedb19/)

Devops: vagrant, puppet

Linux: Ubuntu

I also have experience deploying on cloud infrastructures, most notably Heroku and Amazon EC2 servers.

I am truly passionate about programming in general, and I accord each and every project the attention it deserves. Given the opportunity, I will strive to deliver high quality projects that either meets or exceeds your expectations.

If you are looking for a hardworking, talented and experienced software developer, I am a perfect fit!
