Professional Profile
Ruby Developer Learning Elixir
6+ years Rails experience, now exploring Elixir/Phoenix. I’ve been studying the language and working through exercises. Coming from Rails, Phoenix feels familiar but I’m interested in how Elixir handles distributed systems differently.
Background
- 4+ years full remote across different time zones
- Led teams as Scrum Master, mentored junior developers
- Migrated Rails 3 → Rails 5 on legacy codebase
- Worked with monoliths and microservices (GraphQL, AMQP)
- Built internal tools and ran performance benchmarks
What I Bring
- Solid backend architecture experience
- Remote work and team leadership skills
- Strong Rails foundation that translates to Phoenix
- Experience with legacy system migrations
- Drive to learn and master new tech
Looking For
Opportunities to grow Elixir skills with experienced developers. I learn by doing and want to contribute to real projects while expanding my understanding of the ecosystem.
My Rails background helps me understand Phoenix quickly, and I’m eager to bring that perspective to Elixir teams.
