Vetted Plugin developer in Romania (UTC+3)
If you are looking for someone who can kickstart your idea/startup, someone who can do it all on his own, someone who has been there, someone who can handle all your technical needs so that you can concentrate on your business/organization, someone you can always count on, you have arrived at the right profile. My ultimate aim (and pleasure at the same time) is to help businesses grow and thrive instead of just making websites and applications that don't contribute to anything. I work on all types of WordPress-related projects and I put the most accent on code quality, good commenting, and pixel-perfect implementations with NO bugs.

Vetted Plugin developer in Portugal (UTC+1)
I started programming and working with electronics at a young age and soon wanted to understand programming theory, so I took a Mathematics and Computer Science degree. Despite my interest in theory, I have always been drawn to visual and audio-based projects, leading me to focus on hardcore web development since 2001. As a multidisciplinary person, I've been involved in electronics, landscape photography, and music composition using virtual instruments. I worked with many types of software from photography processing, image editing, video editing, vector graphics, 3D modeling, audio processing, and music composition. I've been working in front-end since 2012 specializing in Angular with a late incursion into React and Remix. Lately, I've decided to add audio programming to my career, so that I can combine two of my passions: music and programming. I started my self-education by re-learning C++, following a lengthy tutorial, and doing a project on a full audio synthesizer plugin using the JUCE framework. I'm documenting it all in an article series on Medium where readers can check my approach and methodology. Please see the portfolio below. On this audio plugin project "Morpheus-Z", I've been finding programming challenges mainly the same as always, and I can see my decades of experience paying off. I have no trouble understanding stuff and easily find and solve problems. I like to get different things working together, like programming software for using a tablet for live looping or controlling a virtual instrument's expression, both connected to Bitwig DAW, or using custom electronics in LEGO displays.

To attract top talent, it's also helpful to list other perks and benefits, such as flexible hours and health coverage.
Crafting a compelling job title is critical as it's the first thing that job seekers see. It should offer enough information to grab their attention and include details on the seniority level, type, and area or sub-field of the position.
Your company description should succinctly outline what makes your company unique to compete with other potential employers.
