About michealr

Currently working as the lead frontend at VSware, migrating a lot of legacy java, html and global heavy javascript to something that makes sense. While still keeping things running.

Previously worked in the energy recruitment sector as the lead dev. Managing, planning and much jumping from React, Django and React Native with a sprinkle of servers.
