Summary
Christopher Carter is a seasoned web developer with 12 years of hands-on experience building front-end and full-stack applications across industries from education to finance. Based in Columbus, Ohio, he has deep practical expertise in JavaScript ecosystems—Angular (1.x and later), Node.js, MEAN stack—and a strong background in test-driven development, Git workflows, and Agile collaboration. His contract work for large enterprises like JPMorgan Chase, Nationwide, McGraw-Hill, and Rackspace highlights an ability to deliver maintainable UI features, migrate legacy components, and integrate chatbots and Azure services. He pairs a BFA in Digital Arts and Music Performance with pragmatic engineering skills, which surfaces in attention to UX and creative problem solving. Comfortable in both short-term contracting and longer product roles, he excels at slotting into teams to rapidly stabilize, enhance, and ship web applications. An uncommon strength is his history of moving between design-oriented roles (Flash/ActionScript and visual asset viewers) and modern JavaScript stacks, giving him a rare blend of visual sensibility and engineering rigor.
