Christian Kaisermann

I'm a Web Engineer with a decade of industry experience and open-source passion. I currently work at VTEX, helping its OSS efforts regarding storefront componentization, developer tooling, and Front-End Infrastructure. Apart from my daily activities, I'm a core contributor to the Svelte framework and author of a few OSS libraries. Javascript and CSS are my jams.

Skills

I'm familiar with most current industry tooling and framework choices such as TypeScript, React, Svelte, module bundlers (Webpack, Rollup, Parcel), GraphQL, and the great majority of HTML and CSS pre/post-processors. I'm also an advocate for readable, clean code and show it through my constant efforts of standardizing coding styles and knowledge sharing.

My peers usually think I'm easy-going, communicative, a fast learner, and a reference for CSS and JavaScript knowledge. I'm also familiar with agile methodologies, interviewing, and managing open-source projects and small communities.
