About

Hi, I am Matt Elliott a Web Developer based in California with 10 years of Web Development experience. I am highly proficient in all aspects of Web Development and very enthusiastic about building powerful, yet elegant web applications that meet modern needs. With a background in Graphic Design I bring a passion for clean, easy to use UI’s to every project I work on.

My mission is to help transform simple websites into robust technical solutions that will put them ahead of their competitors.

Lately, I have been getting very excited about AI and Machine Learning creating a few basic GPTs and working with TensorFlow. I am endevouring on my first Web/AI project and am excited to see where it takes me next.

Recent Work

Currently, I am a team member at International Medical Group on the UX Team collaborating with designers, developers, and business analysts to maintain and upgrade their existing AngularJS site. During my time I have overseen several contractors from quickly; yet effectively, onboarding them to performing pull request reviews of their work. Lately, I have created a front end state management system using NgRx and Angular2. This not only helps organize our code better but also speeds up the application and keeps our Angular components reusable and easy to maintain.

Working at BeatClub I helped thems scale up from a starter Public Relation website to fully functioning musician social network with hundreds of users signing up weekly. Working with an international team we created the base structure for user sign ups, profiles, and competitions. The front end was built with React and I utilized NextJS to create static pages for portions of the site that weren't updated frequently. The back end was built with NodeJS, Express, and Sequelize. The site now receives hundreds of new users weekly and has a budding society of producers, musicians, and artists collaborating together to create new music.

During COVID-19 I scaled up Online Notary Center, working with a very skilled Back End Engineer taking the demo app to fully functioning SaSS product with active notaries and dozens of jobs per day. The front end was built with Vanilla JavaScript and Web Components creating a loose MVC format. Then utilizing websockets the front end was able to communicate with the PHP back end to allow users on separate computers/networks to work on documents simultaneously. The system was built to be responsive and scalable and now receives dozens of notaries daily.

  • ExpressJs

BeatClub

Working on an international team of ten full stack developers we created the basic structure and functionality to a musician driven start up where users can participate in competitions, upload and share files, and manage their profiles and opportunities. The Social Network was built with mordern NodeJS stack using React on the front end and express and sequlize manage the connections to database. I utilzied NextJS static rendering to create statically rendered page templates for areas that weren't frequently updated and dynamic routes for areas that updated frequently. BeatClub now receives hundreds of new weekly users and a budding society of producers, musicians, and artists collaborating together to create new music.
