Greetings Toptal Web Freelancers Group!
I can easily introduce myself as a highly-motivated, energetic self-starter, and all the rest of the buzzwords you are looking for in the perfect candidate, but we both know you need to look beyond the boilerplate responses to find someone with the experience and passion for technology and web development to maintain a competitive edge online. My unique skillset comes from over 15 years in I.T. and web development roles in a wide variety of industries. I’ve proven my ability to thrive as a project manager, both in my own consulting business as well as in a corporate environment. I believe that strong communication throughout any project is essential, and I take pride in my ability to relay information clearly between the technicallyenlightened and nontech savvy individuals. I am open to new ideas and can take direction well to get a project swiftly accomplished. I also often become a key asset towards improving and expanding the scope of a project, helping to avoid unforeseen issues and increasing the longevity of the final product. I take pride in finding the best way rather than the easiest way, and I spend countless hours on a regular basis furthering my knowledge of the latest advances in my field.
Whether you are talking html5, CSS3, SASS/LESS, JQuery, Node.js, AngularJS, PHP, mySQL, MVC, CMS, UI/UX, Linux, Apache and so on, I speak the language of business and productivity. Utilizing the best set of tools and strategies, knowing my strengths and weaknesses, working within a strong team, making sure the end result always exceeds the expectation of the project… that is my passion and this is what I am known for.
Therefore, I present myself to you as the perfect candidate for your company.
Sincerely,
David Reidy
