About

I would like to find an organization that would let me apply the knowledge acquired during my career and develop my creativity, as well as my abilities on planning, analysis, design, development and launch of software projects. To become a member of a team and to establish myself professionally in a company that recognizes personal achievements and performance. I am looking for the next place I can make a significant contribution. I especially would like to tackle larger problems, of scaling up to millions of users and the like. My favorite thing to do in my spare time is learn. Thus, I am a quick learner and I'm able to rapidly get up to speed in a new environment. I am a down-to-earth dude who is passionate about technology, loves a good technical conversation, and I'm anxious to work with others like me.
