Summary
Yong Ho is a Senior Software Engineer with over 20 years of hands-on programming experience and 12 years in professional roles, currently building accessible, performant React applications at Gartner. He brings deep front-end expertise (JavaScript, jQuery, HTML5/CSS, responsive design) plus modern iOS development using Swift and MVVM from prior mobile roles, and a pragmatic focus on debugging, testing, and performance tuning. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs component-driven UI work with backend collaboration, build tooling (webpack, npm), and unit testing (mocha/chai) to deliver robust products that work on legacy and mobile browsers. A lifelong tinkerer who started programming on an Intel 286 and built games and Windows apps as a student, he retains a collector’s attention to code quality and maintainability—“do it right the first time”—while documenting flows and root causes to make systems easier to evolve.
