JACO BRIERS
Full-stack developer
I build software
I am a senior software engineering consultant with more than 10 years of professional experience. I was part of the development teams that built web-based asset management software for most of South Africa's metros, an end-to-end telecommunication site management system and the new GetSmarter ecommerce website.
I have a passion for building intuitive and performant applications using a range of technologies (see my experience listed below). I relish learning and enjoy picking up a new language or technology when it's the best tool for the job at hand.
