Karunakar Antham

I’m an enthusiastic Front-end developer with a big passion for the digital world and what we developers can do to make it bigger and stronger. Very professional with a great work ethic and a loyal worker that focuses on the best results. I have a powerful team spirit, a creative mind and a great sense of humour. 

Key Summary:

• Expertise in React, Flux/Redux, Angular. Highly knowledgeable on scalable and usable UI components and Front-end architecture. Solid understanding of React and Angular rendering theory.

• Very good exposure in Native/Hybrid mobile application development using React-native/ionic.

• Skilled in Node.js, Express, ES6, Async Generator, Event-loop and integration with Grunt/Gulp, Webpack and UI Testing with different frameworks.

• I like to design and also configure servers to scale using AWS, Jenkins, TeamCity, Docker, Nginx, Redis and other great tools.

• Great skills of working in flexible Agile environment, familiar to Scrum, Kanban, JIRA, TDD and pair programming.

• I have a deep understanding of API: s, both building and using them, either with React/Angular or with what I find interesting to use and learn at the moment. Because of my use of open source, I like to give back to the community by helping people on Stack Exchange and push code to GitHub.

I enjoy working on projects where I can have full-stack autonomy, and have a say on systems architecture (strong opinions, held somewhat loosely).

Presently I’m learning about things such as Apache Spark, VR Application development, and machine learning, and have recently worked a lot with performance analysis, multiple databases, GraphQL (an alternative to REST APIs which speeds up product development and stability), and service based architectures (generally partitioned at data/product verticals, rather than micro services)

I can write programs in Java and C, C++ (although I’m still learning those languages). I can also read a number of other programming languages.
