Gabriel E.

I am a full-time freelance web developer with solid background in front end technologies. I can help you define clear software requirements based on your business goals, design and architect choosing the right tools to get the job done in time and write the code for your web application. My tech specialization is in front end engineering ( javascript ), user interface and the overall user experience, but I am also interested in a wide range of topics related to software development, startups and business development, design and marketing. I'm a builder at heart and entrepreneur. I've successfully provided remote web development services to several clients including [login to view URL] ( an e-commerce startup based in Palo Alto, CA ), [login to view URL] ( a London-based company providing software services in web and mobile areas ), [login to view URL] ( an interactive agency in New York City that specializes in developing online experiences ), [login to view URL] ( energy data analytics startup based in Menlo Park, CA ) and [login to view URL] ( a software development company founded in San Jose, Costa Rica ). For about a year I worked as Creative Engineer at [login to view URL] on behalf of Digitas and my work experience includes clients such as SunTrust, Evoxac, Staples, Tide and AMC Networks. I started the costaricajs meetup group, which is the main gathering point for the javascript developers in Costa Rica. The main goal of this group is to share knowledge in technologies, techniques and frameworks related to Javascript ( Node.js, MCV/MV*, Touch Screens, Mobile Development and more ).
