Hey #FediHire , meet @Dominicd3213
He's an embedded systems and #fullstack #developer who loves making machines move and websites work. By day, he wires up #Robots with ROS 2, #arduino and LIDAR; by night, he wrangles #react #TypeScript and #MongoDB into sleek, responsive interfaces. Built #AI chat tools, and co-founded a trading platform.
He lives where code meets circuits, and believes great tech should be powerful and weird.
Anyone need a bright young guy like this?
