About Me

Hello! I’m Joy Simon, a Software Engineer and Full Stack Developer based in Austin, TX. My journey into the world of coding is fueled by a deep passion for video games and an insatiable curiosity for problem solving. Whether it's crafting intuitive user interfaces or developing robust back-end systems, I thrive on the excitement of bringing innovative ideas to life.

My experience spans across various roles, from physical security and customer service to hands-on software development. My technical skill set includes front-end technologies like JavaScript, React, HTML5, and CSS, along with back-end frameworks such as Python, NodeJS, Express, and MongoDB. Each project, whether it’s a UFO-themed Hangman game or a food truck locator app, has honed my abilities to build engaging and functional applications.

I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse teams at companies like Samsung and Meta, where I learned the importance of collaboration and creative problem solving. My stint at General Assembly further solidified my engineering mindset, where I built comprehensive full-stack applications and developed a knack for tackling challenges from multiple angles.

In my downtime, you’ll likely find me immersed in a game or exploring new problem-solving puzzles. This passion for gaming translates into my professional work, where I approach each project with the same enthusiasm and strategic thinking.

I’m excited to bring my skills and enthusiasm to a dynamic team. Let’s chat about how I can contribute to your next big project and drive positive results together.
