Background

About Christopher Jobst

I have over 10 years of experience developing web applications. I'm an expert in extreme programming practices and it's a methodology I'm passionate about, especially test driven development. I love teaching and helping others learn. This also benefits me, since teaching is the best way to learn! In fact, I've facilitated multiple workshops for clients on the topic of XP, which has been rewarding for me. Having done years of pair programming, I excel at working in a team. Additionally, I have experience leading teams during my time as a consultant. I'm happiest when my job challenges me and forces me to learn. Learning is another passion of mine, and picking up new technologies, e.g. frameworks and languages, comes easily to me. This extends to new interests as well. Recently, I've been hoping to learn machine learning, robotic systems, and data science.(As time allows, I've been starting Coursera classes on the these subjects.) So I'm continually looking to broaden my skills and understanding of my field.
