Is “much needed re-write” in the room with us right now?

Some years ago I applied for a junior Android developer position. When I arrived for the interview, I was told that there was a more pressing front-end vacancy to interview for. Little did I know, I said “Yeah, sure” and this is how my JavaScript journey began.

Fast forward to today, I've worked in both startups and software houses, building and maintaining complex applications. I've worked with a bunch of talented people, and I've learned a lot from them.

Ultimately, I've come to realize that I enjoy working on the back-end of the front-end (if that makes sense). I enjoy writing application business logic, optimizing performance, as well as planning and maintaining the application architecture. I also enjoy working on component libraries, and occasionally building that odd landing page.

tl;dr: Monads.
