Summary
Jeffrey Hartmann is a pragmatic full-stack web developer and intranet webmaster with 12 years of experience building database-driven web tools that streamline processes, reduce paperwork, and improve user engagement. Comfortable across PHP/MySQL stacks, responsive Bootstrap front-ends, and legacy platforms (Classic ASP/ASP.NET), he combines hands-on coding with content and document-management experience from enterprise and nonprofit settings. His personal demo site, maintained since 2017, demonstrates ongoing skill development in areas that formal schooling and recent contracts didn’t provide, including API integration and test-driven parser work. A detail-oriented, trainable collaborator who has mentored new hires, he is open to hybrid or onsite roles in the Chicago area and willing to pivot into adjacent clerical or library roles to restart his career. Outside tech he’s a classic film historian and aspiring writer, bringing curiosity and clear communication to technical projects.
