I was invited back to the Silicon-Fen startup JumpTech for a 6-week paid internship in 2023 in their agile software development team, after a week of work experience in 2022. I focused on the backend of their AWS-powered application suite, contributed to stability and reliability by fixing bugs, worked to improve code quality and wrote automated tests. I designed new reusable web components with Storybook and wrote a shared TypeScript utilities library, among other tasks.

JavaScript, React, Ruby on Rails

Volunteering on the open-source WCA website, I aided with the migration from Ruby on Rails to React, fixed bugs and contributed to architectural discussions. I learned how to be productive in a large, unfamiliar code base and worked effectively in the remote-first WCA Software Team, a distributed group of engineers from around the world.

Everywhen is a journaling and life-logging web-app project I founded in 2022. It is open-source, free to use and ad-free. Security and scalability are two of the core focuses: data is end-to-end encrypted using similar protocols as mainstream password managers, and every page is snappy for users with 10 or 10,000 entries. Other features include images, event logging, geospatial visualisations, powerful analytics and encrypted index-based search.
