mtc.
Front End Developer
While in mtc I have worked in many areas of the company from leading projects to dealing with aftercare for clients. I was able to work on complex projects early into joining the company without needing much assistance to mentoring newer members of staff.
I have dealt with hundreds of different websites and have the ability to work to tight deadlines without lowering quality. I have been able to work across multiple teams in the company and am quick to adapt to new situations.
