Profile: https://flows.cv/stevefranks

I'm a seasoned Software Engineer passionate about building things and crafting solutions to problems.

My expertise spans a wide range of programming languages, including Python, GO, Java, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, Ruby, Shell Scripting and C.

My experience extends to using database and caching software such as MySQL, Postgres, Redis and Memcached

I've used technologies and servers such as ArgoCD, Apache (httpd, Airflow, Spark Streaming), Django, Jenkins, NGINX, Node.js & Puppet to build scalable and reliable solutions.

I'm well-versed in cloud & containerization technologies such as AWS, Google Cloud, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform and I have a solid grasp of CI/CD principles.

I also have some familiarity with Android, iOS and Windows app development.

I'm always experimenting with new technologies and services and learning new things.

Let's connect!
