# Neil Hendricks > Software Engineer Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/neilhendricks Full Stack MERN Software Engineer Eagle Scout and founder of Special Needs Boy Scout Troop 528 Dubai Computer Science Grad Hofstra University neilhendricks.com (I personally built my site with React incorporating various js libraries and jquery) I've been coding since High School, for almost a decade. I have experience building both front end and full stack progressive web apps. Having built big projects with the MERN stack, such as a social media site which can be seen on my github, I learned about building a MVP using MVC and agile methods. Furthermore, in a day and age where over %50 of web traffic is through mobile devices, I am well antiquated with creating mobile friendly apps with cross-browser compatibility. Having built back ends and having worked with various API's, I have become a well rounded full stack engineer. Check out the skills and projects page of my site to get a better understanding of my skillset neilhendricks.com/skillsandprojects Ever since learning about the simulation hypothesis, I've been infatuated with AI, and am currently studying machine learning in my free time. When I'm not glued to the computer programming or on Codewars having fun solving coding challenges, I love being outdoors- bike riding or camping. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ 5 Element Analytics Jan 2025 – Present | New York, United States ### Software Engineer @ InterSoft Associates, Inc.
