Abbas Jaffery

A versatile developer having worked with a wide variety of systems I am able to operate on mutliple projects at the same time using my language agnostic approach and ability to quickly context switch. Effectively balancing product goals, quality, and efficiency has been key to successfully creating the best solutions possible!

A sharp eye and natural talent for identifying problems allows me to quickly discover bugs and proactively prevent bugs from occurring. I have developed robust frameworks for quickly setting up automated tests for APIs, websites, and mobile apps across unit, integration, and load testing.

Building excellent products by having a deep understanding of what is most important for users and how different parts of the architecture interact with each other. Whether the product is for consumer, business, or internal use, my approach ensures that it is as easy to use as possible and focused on the features that users need. To acheive those goals I am well versed in writing detailed specs and working with the whole team to see it through.

Multi-disciplined and focused on doing everything possible to get the job done. No task is too big or small in the pursuit of achieving our broader goals.
