Matt Kerkstra
Senior Software Engineer - Fullstack
I am a software engineer from Austin, Texas, and I've been slinging code since studying computer science at Rice University. Fullstack typescript is my comfort zone, and I tend to drive products towards abstractions that improve the team's developer experience and enshrine logic that makes sense for their business between their tables, schemas, and types. Incentivized personal and technical growth and sharing that growth with your peers is what I enjoy most about working in this space.
Where I've worked
Hotel Engine
Software Engineer - 8 months
I have been incredibly fortunate to have been surrounded by truly competent engineers with a wide variety of experiences, walks of life, and ideologies. Hotel Engine is terrific to work for and, being a scaleup, the types of problems I get to solve change every week. The folks I work with, I think of as friends, can make a meaningful impact on the quality of the product, and I feel like I am growing as an engineer.
Reynolds and Reynolds
Software Developer - 2 years 4 months
I worked in a team that provided tools used by Dealerships in their Finance and Insurance departments (commonly called front office or F&I). I started as a Software Developer, then shortly after my onboarding period, I informally took on the responsibilities of a supervisor/lead developer after an abrupt exit on my team.
