# Jin Jin Heipler > Software Engineer II at CarGurus Location: Acton, Massachusetts, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jinjinheipler I'm a dedicated front-end developer with a love for combining my programming skills with my eye for design to create clean, interactive user-experiences. I have over 4 years of experience building and improving applications, and I am always looking for ways to contribute my front-end focused skills to opportunities and projects that are unique, creative, and make a difference. I specialize in using React with TypeScript, but I also have experience working with other modern front-end frameworks like Vue and Angular. Outside of the work environment, you will most likely find me at the gym coaching CrossFit, on a run, or spending time with my partner and our cat.
