Full Stack Web Developer (Django, NodeJS, AngularJS, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, SASS, SCSS, Bootstrap + jQuery) Sep 17 – Jun 18

Client: BrandCrafter

Brandcrafter is an intelligent brand strategy platform that automates the brand research process and streamlines brand strategy

creation. It analyzes brand data from around the globe in real-time to offer trends, insights, and strategies which can be used to

create and verify brand positioning.

• Implemented and/or modified solutions that required full-stack development (Django REST with JWT authentication + NodeJS + AngularJS + HTML + JavaScript + CSS (SASS/SCSS) + Bootstrap + jQuery) which included: o Interactive help for all screens (step by step tutorials with animations, autoscrolling and UI

highlight). o Researched company logo displays (crawled information). o Percent confidence statistical calculations based on location. o Sign-in / Login / Forgot password screen (implemented Google ReCaptcha, improved layout). o Django Admin panel customization for manual task streaming (automated selection of items on

In May, the project ran out of funding and client was unable to pay outstanding debt, which we let accumulate because we trusted them. Funding got renewed on June, but an agreement to continue working wasn't reached after client tried to modify the amount due at last minute. Amount due has not paid in full until this date. This experience will be used to optimize the process and experience for the client, by implementing mechanisms which will ensure more transparency in the results (for both parties) and provide an even better experience for future clients, without adding frictions to the business relationships and maintaining the great experience that keep most of our clients returning for further services.

HONORS / AWARDS / RECOGNITIONS

UPWORK (Former ODesk/ELance), Redwood City, California (USA)

Top-Rated Freelancer Badge (Mar 15 – Aug 17, Mar 19)

• A status that recognizes outstanding freelancers that have built an impressive reputation, with a proven

history of success with multiple clients delighting them every time with high-quality work and contributing

to a safer and vibrant marketplace by knowing and following Upwork policies. This status is given to the

best freelancers on the site that use the platform with a given frequency.

Offering services through multiple platforms and directly to clients, without a platform, has produced an

extended period of inactivity. As of Aug 2018, Upwrok has been used for less than two months in the last two

years. This resulted in the status taken away since the success score cannot be calculated without a minimum

number of hours/contracts during a period. On March 2019, I was top-rated fro a brief period.
