Summary
James Vongampai is a full-stack software developer and seasoned operations leader based in Mountain View, CA, who combines eight years of hands-on restaurant management with formal training from Purdue and Hackbright to build user-focused web applications. Comfortable across React, Redux, Node/Express, MongoDB and SQL, he emphasizes elegant, high-quality UIs and robust APIs—evidenced by a recent real-time NBA app that integrates live data, parlays, and JWT-based authentication. His background driving revenue and loyalty in a busy restaurant environment informs a pragmatic, user-centered approach to product design and team collaboration. Having moved between customer-facing roles and engineering stints at Tata Consultancy Services and Wiley Edge, he brings both sales-savvy communication and disciplined TDD/Agile practices to development teams. Colleagues can expect a developer who treats software like hospitality: prioritize repeatable, delightful experiences that bring customers back.
