About Kevin Mershon
My Bakersfield firm offers custom software integration, apps, and websites for businesses. Please let me know if we may be of assistance to you or your business.
I am a full stack software developer, primarily focused on web technologies. My core competencies are Clojure/ClojureScript, Python, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, and Amazon Web services. I've been a developer for over 13 years, and have mostly focused on designing distributed data collection systems for the oil and shipping industries. Personally, I am primarily interested in green technologies, industrial/home device integration and automation.
I work comfortably in most environments. I frequently use OS Virtualization software such as AWS, VirtualBox, and Xen. I am experienced with several nuanced approaches to software engineering such as functional programming, object-oriented design, reflection, and normalized relational database design. I'm fond of pair programming, and always use a bug tracker and code repository (currently a huge fan of GitHub). I am a firm believer in self-documenting code and test-driven development, and prioritize the user experience above all else. I am an experienced team leader, and have personally trained several people in web development from a novice to competent intermediate level.
In addition to the specialties listed, I also provide general-to-specialized levels of technical support, depending on context. My programming expertise is systems design, web applications, clean and intuitive GUIs, networking and network topology, and custom integration. I am also completely fascinated with cryptography.
