JUAN ARAUJOENGINEERING × PRODUCT2020 – PRESENT

The web should
feel good.

Good software changes your life.

Since I was a kid, I’ve been tinkering with tech; I’ve grown fixated on tech products and how they can change your life. This could’ve been a Nintendo product, a new website, a new game, or something shiny that could change my day-to-day use, like a new Android ROM. I wanted to make something out of that. I figured that I could live my life not only experiencing how tech could potentially change my day-to-day, but how I could change the lives of many other people and share some of that joy.

So I’m here; I’m Juan, nice to meet you. A software engineer with an obsession and immense passion for the field. I care if something has my name or my team name on it. I take pride in what I do; for you as a potential employer, that translates to agency and creativity with a lot of ownership. Somebody to lift you. That is, if you can pique my interest.

I’m currently tinkering full-time, meaning I’m unemployed. So, I’m looking for an awesome team that values craft, ownership, and that enjoys building product. Just as much as I do.
