Hey! 😃
I'm Peter, a Senior Software Developer from Glasgow, Scotland 🏴
Experience
I have been a Software Developer for 6 years and am experienced with TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Ruby on Rails. I've worked in eCommerce for Ooni, the Care Industry for CareSourcer, and FinTech for Experian and Castlight Financial.
