Full stack engineer with 4 years of coding experience and a BloomTech certification, currently under contract maintaining a live production Ruby on Rails app, where I came in with no prior Rails experience and have since fixed a double submit bug, shipped an analytics reporting feature, and written verification scripts that caught four data integrity bugs. I also built and shipped BizWatch Connect, a React and React Native business messaging app on the Apple App Store with real users, and a three service Debt Settlement Progress Tracker (React, PHP/Laravel, Go) overnight for an interview. Before software I managed a roofing crew and ran a gym sales team, so I bring real client communication and ownership experience alongside the code. Looking for full time or contract work.
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: Yes (Within the southern California area including LA, OC, and SD counties)

I'm a full stack engineer with a BloomTech Full Stack Certification and a strong track record of independently designing, building, and deploying complete applications. My recent work includes BizWatch Connect, a business alert and messaging platform with both a React web app and a React Native mobile app sharing a Firebase backend. As well an Asteroid Mining Simulator with a Rust physics engine compiled to WebAssembly running entirely in browser. All projects are live and linked at jacobbarnett.dev. I bring a background in operations and client facing roles that adds strong communication and reliability alongside the engineering work.
