Hi, my name is
Raj.
I build things for the web.
I’m a Senior Full Stack Developer specializing in building (and occasionally designing) exceptional digital experiences. Currently, I’m focused on building accessible, human-centered products at Psystem.
About Me
Hello! My name is Raj and I enjoy creating things that live on the internet. My interest in web development started back in 2015 when I decided to try editing custom Bootstrap themes — turns out hacking together a custom reblog button taught me a lot about HTML & CSS!
Fast-forward to today, and I’ve had the privilege of working at tech companies in Toronto & Saskatoon, Ernst & Young, and a startup and also get myself AWS certified.
I'm currently in the epic quest of moving an application from handling hundreds of users to thousands at Psystem
Here are a few technologies I’ve been working with recently:
- JavaScript (ES6+)
- TypeScript
- React
- Java Spring Boot
- Node.js
- AWS
