Ali Zaidi

First and foremost I love development and finding solutions to real-world problems using code. In my 6+ years of professional and 9+ years of programming experience, I've had the opportunity of working in a versatile technology stack in mobile, web and cloud based development. From creating simple WordPress sites to architecting complex applications and solutions using React JS, Python, Laravel..., from creating single-paged simple android applications to developing complex applications supporting real-time chat, location reporting, offline compatibility, augmented reality.., from developing monoliths to architecting micro-services using Node-Js, Google Cloud functions, Python, Docker/Kubernetes, GKE..., from asking seniors to deploy my fix to managing servers and deployments myself. I've accomplished all by constantly challenging myself, in fact, I enjoy being challenged and working on projects that require me to work outside my comfort and knowledge set as continuing to learn new techniques and technologies is important to me, the field I chose to pursue is constantly evolving and I believe I haven't even scratched the surface. Tools & Technologies I feel comfortable working with: Android, Java, PHP, Python, Laravel, JavaScript, React JS, Node JS, Docker, Kubernetes, Google Cloud functions, Google Cloud Platform, REST APIs, Microservices Architecture, Git, WordPress.
