Oleksandr Shchegol

Full Stack Developer

Full-stack developer with six years of experience building web applications, mostly for municipal and government clients. I work mainly in C#, .NET and SQL, on both new platforms and long-running legacy systems. I enjoy learning new tools, working closely with a team and getting project issues resolved quickly.

About

I'm Oleksandr, a software developer based in Edmonton. I earned my diploma from the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) in Digital Media and IT, majoring in Computer Software Development. I then completed a Bachelor of Applied Information Systems Technology at NAIT while working full-time, which let me apply what I was learning right away.

Most of my experience is in full-stack development, so I'm comfortable on both the front end and the back end.

I like being challenged and working on projects that use new technologies. On every project, I start by listening to the client and making sure I understand what they need, because a satisfied client is one of my top priorities.

Continuous Learning

I keep building my skills by learning new technologies and development techniques.

Applying What I Learn

I put new skills to work on real projects, which shows me how well I've understood them.

Satisfied Clients

I take the time to understand what clients need, then build a product that meets those needs.
