Summary
Alex Arendsen is a Senior Full Stack Developer and software architect with 11+ years of experience building web applications and modern SPAs across .NET, JavaScript frameworks, and a wide spectrum of backend stacks from LAMP to microservices. Based in Greater Orlando, he brings practical cross-stack fluency—having migrated legacy systems, led continuous delivery efforts, and transitioned teams through Angular, React, and service-oriented architectures. Alex emphasizes humane engineering: using software to reduce suffering, elevating team voices, and prioritizing respect, ownership, and balance in delivery. Comfortable in both hands-on implementation and architectural strategy, he pairs legacy-system rescue skills with modern CI/CD and frontend-first practices. An adaptable collaborator who has worked in academia, enterprise trading systems, and consulting, he seeks perspectives that improve outcomes rather than prescribe one “right” way.
