Summary
Samuel Cormier is a Senior Software Engineer based in Los Angeles with 4 years of formal experience and a long history of hands-on full‑stack web development across PHP/MySQL, Ruby on Rails/Postgres, and modern Node.js/React/Next.js stacks. He now focuses on front-end engineering and design-driven interfaces, bringing a strong eye for typography, animation, and accessibility from projects for galleries, artists, and cultural institutions. Samuel has shipped production subscription and payment flows (Stripe), custom APIs integrating Shopify and logistics systems, and built LMS features including auto-proctoring and auto-grading tools.
