Background

About Damien Otis

I have been programming JavaScript, HTML and CSS for 15+ years. My background is diverse and includes assembly language, C as well as server & database programming and electrical engineering. I specialize in cutting-edge, high-performance web apps at scale, desktop apps, mobile apps, as well as embedded devices (8-bit, 32-bit, IoT/Internet of Things). I'm familiar with many full-stack technologies, including JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, React, AngularJS,"Vanilla Javascript"/ ES5, ES6​, SVG, Canvas, and many others too numerous to list here. I have also worked with back-end technologies including NodeJS.NET/IIS, PHP, Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and many more. I am very skilled with AWS, AWS-SDK, and many AWS services like Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, EC2, and many more. I am very fast at prototyping dynamic user interfaces and bringing them to a polished and bug-free launch. I am also very good at applying complex algorithms to solve front-end problems such as cryptography and 3D graphics. I'm an experienced troubleshooter able to solve or work-around tricky cross-browser issues when they arise due to cutting edge technologies across multiple constantly updating browser/platforms. Please visit my online portfolio/resume website at for examples of my work experience. If you're still interested, then please also visit my github - https://github.com/damien-otis where I have a few things public - the really interesting stuff is in private Bitbucket repositories, and I'll have to get to know you before you get to see that.
