Spunky Tenacious Software Engineer

Alex Solis | Software Engineer – Front End, UX, Products

Hi, I’m Alex and I’m a Software Engineer!

I started out as a Mathematics major, jumped into becoming a Software Engineer, got involved with UX Design, learned about Business Analysis, and enjoyed the evolution of Products and how they transform our waking lives – and probably how they reach our dreams!

I consider myself a Spunky Tenacious Software Engineer through the many hats and roles I could bring in a software development team with the use of skillful industry techniques coupled with unconventional yet practical insight to fully bring out innovation.

Why Spunky?

I am determined to develop my capabilities through gaining experience while delivering quality that I can yield at a given moment. I am courageous enough to step out from one’s domain and explore another’s perspective to gain insight and look beyond what is in front and use them to produce results.

Why Tenacious?

Being a software engineer and a human being is an endless potential of learning. I would like to use my craft as a professional and hobbyist to persist in this ever evolving world – building my own resolve and to bring fun and enjoyment to the things we do.

With inspiration from mathematics and discovering patterns in mind, I have a goal to

Discover the randomness of the world one chaos at a time.
