Albert Juhé PDF ResumeI am a Front-End Developer and JavaScript engineer with more than seven years of professional experience. In the last years, I have been specialized with React and Flux methodology (including Redux and Alt.js).
I have worked in small, medium-sized and big teams, always with people from different nationalities, languages and cultures. I have experience working on-site (both in my home country and abroad) and as a remote worker
All the projects I do for fun are published with open-source licenses in my GitHub account, including react-lazy-load-image-component and threejs-procedural-building-generator. I have also contributed to many open-source projects including Firefox and other projects from Mozilla.
I am a strong believer of the open web and open-source software.

I was the main JavaScript Engineer and Front-End Developer at Curelator for over three years. During that time, I made contributions to many different projects, the most important ones being a Clinician Dashboard developed from scratch with React and Alt (Flux implementation) and a collection of interactive visualizations written with D3.js.
Other tasks included developing a PDF user report that was auto-generated from a dynamic HTML/JS page and implementing the company's corporate site and emails.
Webpack, Mocha, PhantomJS and WordPress are some other tools we used.
In Curelator I learned how to start a project from scratch and how to deal with the responsibility of taking the decisions relative to the front-end side of the project.

Albert has been the main Web developer at Curelator for the last 3 years and was instrumental in the success of the company.
From the corporate website to full React/Flux single page app, doing email templates, PDF-rendered report templates and neat data visualizations, he's an amazing team member who work hard to get things done, the proper way. He's very resourceful yet he doesn't hesitate to ask for help, very humble and great attitude.
Gabriel Boucher, Innovation Lead at Curelator Inc. —
A big thanks to contributors Albert Juhé and Tim Nguyen for their help in making the netmonitor table UI match the rest of the toolbox.

Albert put all my reservations and opposition for having interns to shame.
I was the biggest opponent for hiring an intern to my tech team at Bownty, but was persuaded by my colleagues to try it just once anyway.
Albert amazed me with his can-do attitude, his aptitude for just getting things done, and handing even senior-level complex tasks on time, and well tested.
I was so happy with Alberts performance, that once his internship was over, we hired him on spot as full time employee, where he continued to shine.
I don't know how to give a stronger recommendation than this, but if you ever get the chance to hire Albert as a frontend developer, don't miss out - he will surely exceed any and all expectations.
Christian Winther, CTO at Bownty & CakePHP core developer —
Albert's work has been very valuable for the Developer Tools project. His work on the theme helped us release a major redesign of the toolbox in version 29. And he's continued to help improve the tools since then, while being a friendly and positive person to work with.
Brian Grinstead, Firefox engineer —
Albert es muy responsable y eficiente.
Es muy buen desarrollador pero además puede atender con eficacia a los clientes en reuniones presenciales o bien virtuales.
Tiene una actitud proactiva frente a todos los proyectos y siempre busca la mejor solución, sea cual sea el entorno de programación.
Sin duda recomiendo a Albert. Si tienes la suerte de contar con él o tenerlo como compañero podrás sentirte afortunado.Carles Sanabre Vives, CEO en Sanabre Comunica —
