ABOUT NICHOLAS CHANG
I am a software engineer with a background in project management/psychology. My understanding of both the technical and product view has helped me deliver and optimize many distributed systems within Cloud-based Platforms. I have experience developing on and targeting a wide array of environments including MacOS, Linux, and Windows.My favorite part of technology is its constant ability to create unique, visceral experiences that were not physically possible just a couple years before. In my free time, you can usually find me reading books/articles about technical best practices, finances, or self-improvement. I enjoy playing volleyball and staying fit.Strong: Golang, Typescript, Javascript/Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, Jest, AWS Lambda, Auth0, Apigee, OPA, Gitlab CI/CD, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, AWS, Serverless Framework, Helm, JMeterExperienced: C++, Java, GCP, Jenkins, Sumologic, New Relic, DataDog, PagerDuty, Cassandra, MongoDB, Puppeteer, Mocha/Chai, NGINX, Webpack, Test Driven Development (TDD), OOP, npm, JIRA, HTML/CSS, MySQL, Git, React, Redux, React Native, AngularJS, Stryker-Mutator, Mac, Linux, Windows
