Software Developer [Frontend, React]

Hello, my name is Abraham Christopher. I am a frontend developer with expertise in Reactjs, Next, Typescript and React Native
I have a Higher National Diploma in Electrical Electronics Engineering and have a proven track record of success on structured, results-focused product development teams. I am confident in my abilities and have demonstrated this through my work.

Over the past three years, I have primarily focused on building the client side of web applications, sometimes using micro-service architecture. My daily tasks involve working with Restful API data, building UI logic and components, documenting, and occasionally conducting end-to-end tests using the CI/CD approach with technologies such as React.js, Redux, Zustand, Nextjs, NexthAuth, Context API, Socket io, jijst, styled-components, CSS libraries, Tailwind CSS, and other modern frontend tools.

It is important to note that in addition to being a frontend developer, I am also passionate, empathic, and strive for excellence in my work.
As a frontend engineer, I utilize my extensive experience as a frontend developer, in-depth knowledge of the product development process, excellent communication skills, and a range of technical and creative skills to enhance the productivity and success of any product development team.

You can contact me through LinkedIn or email if you have any questions or would like to connect.

I look forward to speaking with you soon.
