About

Curtis Wirtz
Olympia, WA, USA

I'm a full-stack developer with over 6 years of professional experience.

In that time, I've enjoyed building, maintaining, and repairing many websites, plugins, and integrations. Having used a myriad of technologies, I've become somewhat framework-agnostic and proficient in choosing a stack that best suits project needs.

On the front-end, I emphasize accessibility, design-to-code accuracy, re-usable atomic structure, SEO, and performance optimization best practices.

Like many, I started with the out-of-box monolith, Wordpress. Gradually, I introduced containerization, CD/CI pipelines, then made the jump to headless CMS with PostGres, Node.js and SSG. Inevitably, I traversed the modern Typescript, server vs. client ecosystem that utilizes stateful TSX and graphQL fetching. I'm grateful for all my pre-LLM coding and troubleshooting knowledge, but life today is much sweeter with my AI assistant Copilot.

I've been a stalwart team member in a collaborative environment with distributed teams. I have lead-developer experience, pay attention to detail, and have a strong desire to learn. I focus on team goals, remain unpretentious, and prioritize clear communication.

Let's work together!
