Top SchoolWilliam Alvarez is a web developer based in Vancouver with eight years of industry experience and a focused 4+ year track record building performant, user-centered web experiences. Currently at Petcurean, he specializes in Next.js, Node.js, Contentful and Netlify, delivering API integrations and front-end solutions that prioritize speed and maintainability. His background blends formal training in Digital Design and Development (graduated with distinction from BCIT) and Computer Science studies at Langara, giving him both design sensibility and technical rigor. He has experience across agency and product environments, briefly contributing to ScopeMedia before moving into product work, and brings practical customer-facing perspective from earlier roles such as barista at Starbucks.
