Summary
Max Jowett is a Full Stack Developer based in Oakland with eight years of experience building web applications across JavaScript, Go, and serverless AWS architectures. Transitioning from a machinist background to software, he brings a practical, systems-oriented approach to problems and a strong command of both front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Next/Gatsby) and backend tooling (Node, GraphQL, SQL/NoSQL). He currently contributes at Libertas Funding and Data Alchemy, shipping full-stack features and scalable integrations while mentoring early developers during his time as a tutor. Comfortable with real-time tech like WebSocket/WebRTC and test-driven workflows, he pairs hands-on engineering (Vim, Git, Tmux) with a designer’s eye from Adobe/Sketch tooling. Notably, his GitHub showcases recent projects that demonstrate quick prototyping and production-ready services informed by his machining roots in precision and process.
