Top SchoolJerry Gerou is a pragmatic software engineer with nine years of professional experience and a track record of building and maintaining stable, scalable web applications across Ruby on Rails, Python/Django, Java, .NET, and React.

A former small-business owner and MFA-trained writer, he brings uncommon strengths in customer empathy, product-focused documentation, and thoughtful UX-driven tradeoffs.
