Junior Software Developer

Hi, I'm Alex. I build SaaS Products from scratch. 🚀

I've been building products for almost 9 years now and it excites me for 3 reasons:

- the products are being loved by people
- the products convince people to buy
- the products solve a bigger problem

I basically breathe technology and design every day!

Got something to chat about Product development, SaaS tools, or anything about the startup culture? Let's talk :)
