Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Stone is a senior web developer with 16 years of experience building and maintaining high-traffic sites, currently driving development on iheart.com from New York. He brings pragmatic polyglot skills and a systems mindset—comfortable with modern tooling but rooted in Debian, Emacs, and low-level thinking where "everything is run by assembly." Andrew has contributed notable backend work to the popular open-source goquery project, adding DOM manipulation and class utilities that expanded its HTML-processing capabilities in Go. His career spans startups and agencies through long-term product work, giving him both rapid-delivery agility and production-hardened discipline. Quirky and curious by nature, he favors practical resets (git co .) and unconventional humor—details that help him solve tricky problems without losing perspective.
