Radu Simion
Developer

Synopsis

I'm self-taught, around 11 years of experience with frontend development. Good knowledge of web related things.

I’ve worked on projects ranging from large corporate applications to smaller apps or presentational websites.

Developed a few mobile apps using various hybrid frameworks, I think Flutter is a good choice.

Years of experience with Angular, although I currently prefer Vue/Nuxt. Recently, bun and htmx have drawn my attention.

I’ve worked for few years as a UI/UX designer before transitioning to development.

I think most projects are overly complicated and I’m strong believer in simple, functional MVPs and reiteration.

    Systematic

    I join Systematic for the opportunity to learn more and work in an interactive, process-oriented environment with larger teams and complex projects, using Angular for a large-scale military defense application. During my employment I led major refactor features, building a solid base for a stable UI framework with shared components between multiple projects.

    Igniter

    Found the opportunity of a larger project and together with three partners, start a development company. We work as a technical team for US-based startups.

    I transition to Angular 2 and start diving into NodeJS.

    In three years I work on different projects with various technologies, languages and frameworks, also building custom middleware, backend modules and microservices with NodeJS. Angular remains my personal preference as a frontent framework.
