Hi, my name’s Hugh Guiney (🗣 GUY-knee). I’m a UX Developer, which means I design and code thoughtful digital products. I’ve worked with organizations of all sizes, from startups to SMBs to household names. In my spare time I build open-source software, play fighting games, and perform improv comedy. ## Companies I’ve worked with 🏃‍♂️ Runkeeper 💚 Oxfam 🦁 Publicis Sapient 🏦 Citizens Bank 🎮 WB Games 👟 Reebok 📰 The Boston Globe 🏙 The City of Boston ## Services ### Development - HTML5, CSS3, & JavaScript (ES6+) - React— incl. Redux, Context, & Hooks - Node.js - Gatsby - WordPress - Shopify - SEO¹ & Performance ### Design - UI/UX (Look & Feel) - Information Architecture - Components & Design Systems - Usability/Accessibility - Copyediting - Logos & Brand Identity - Responsive Design ## The hughx Advantage: ### 🐖 Economical. With traditional app development, there are two main phases: design and development. First, the designer creates mockups—a series of pictures of what the app will look like. Then the developer translates those pictures into actual code. This duplicates the work of the designer, costing you time and money. Often the designer lacks technical knowledge. At best, this makes the developer’s job harder. At worst this means design revisions. Either way it means more time and more money. There’s a better way. As a hybrid designer–developer, I don’t do mockups—only functional prototypes. That way you can feel what the product will be like, rather than just imagine it. And with fewer cooks in the kitchen, you get to launch and iterate faster. ### ♿️ Empathetic. 50% of the world’s population isn’t online yet¹, but they soon will be. As this happens, they will largely arrive by way of mobile, not desktop. And not on the iPhone 11, either—more like the iPhone from 2011. This means sites and apps designed for Westerners with the latest tech will break for the rest of the world. I believe the Internet should be for everyone. I keep accessibility, performance, and user friendliness top-of-mind at every stage of development. This helps your product reach the broadest possible audience. It’s not just good karma, it’s good business. ### 🏛 Engineered. Just because you’re moving fast doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice quality. Today’s MVP is tomorrow’s legacy codebase. Left unpaid, technical debt manifests as bottlenecks. New features start to break old ones. The app slows to a crawl, increasing bounce rate and costing you sales. Current employees get pulled away from product work to help onboard new employees. Contracting with hughx is an insurance policy against code rot. Modular functions, unit tests, and detailed documentation all come standard. If your customers don’t thank you, your dev team will. ¹ Best practices only.

Eduardo B.

Vetted Apollo GraphQL developer in the United Arab Emirates (UTC+4)

I started learning how to program at the age of 16. I was interested in learning what was necessary to make a website. I did not expect to fall in love with it and choose it as a career. I have built all kinds of web apps. From the classic monolithic Ruby on Rails app to applications that keep the front-end and back-end separate from one another. I have also worked with non-technical clients and have been able to communicate effectively with them to determine their needs.

Vetted Apollo GraphQL developer (UTC+3)

Hey-hey, I'm happy you read this short story about me and my professional career! My name is Taras, I'm from Ukraine, I'm 25, working as a front-end/sometimes full-stack developer for the last 5 years. Love to learn and try out new things in the industry. My main FE stack is React, TS, + different tools from this ecosystem. As a Fullstack developer, I was mostly using MERN or MEVN stacks. Here's a short summary of my experience: At my very last job position, I was bootstrapping, developing, and leading the front-end development of various products: The first one- in the marketing field (organize and schedule marketing strategies for agencies, that have tons of customers with different approaches to each one) I was configuring CI/CD from scratch for FE and BE with Github actions and Gitlab CI/CD using AWS as a cloud provider to migrate BE and FE services from on-prem to cloud. Also, I was responsible for evaluating the existing code base before we started work with our customers in order to understand if there's technical debt, performance, or security issues, if the codebase was maintainable, or if rewriting the existing code base was a better (more time- and cost-efficient) choice for our customers. The second one- an internal product of the company I was working in. I was working here as a FE lead and full stack developer. The product itself It helps PMs and DMs to organize management of existing projects, visualize data about incomes and expenses, quickly search for a person with the needed skill set for an open position, and much much more. Another product I was dealing with was UK-based SaaS in the big boarding industry. I was busy migrating legacy apps from Angular 2 to React helping the product to achieve desired flexibility in terms of frequent changes and quick development iterations. Almost all the time I was working remotely because our customers are from EMEA (mostly) and the team was often distributed. Earlier I was participating in a fin-tech startup based in Germany. We were developing a distributed on-premise system (micro-services) that was helping different merchants and technical network providers to monitor and organize money flow via terminals. Also, I was working at Nike as a FE contractor. I was working on internal SaaS platforms for managing storage and delivery processes as well as an RnD Engineer for bootstrapping and iterating creative Ideas we've had to offer. I was actively involved in software development internships being a mentor for newcomers as well as interviewing candidates, that wanted to join our teams
