About David Mendez

I love building consumer facing SAAS products! Throughout my career I was given opportunities to put on many hats between product management and software engineering. I enjoy understanding problems in industries and strategizing how to solve them functionally and technically.Most of my experience is building full stack enterprise software products in the healthcare industry utilizing Python/Django for 5 years, Ruby/RoR for 5 years, and HTML/JS/CSS throughout that time with little bit of experience in React. Our applications were used by hospitals/clinics with millions of patients/members from these facilities. Outside of work, I mentor and guide people interested in tech as they transition from school to the workforce.
