Jacob does code and stuff
Howdy! You've found my online portfolio. My name is Jacob Emerick and I am a software engineer who works remotely for Shutterstock. I specialize in backend application architecture and development, though I also have frontend, management, and data science skills as well.
When I'm not programming, I enjoy backpacking, hiking, reading, and rough-housing with my two sons. I do spend a lot of time coding, though, for both work and open source. My current areas of focus are…
- Service-Orientated Architecture patterns
- APIs, particularly with spec design
- Backend Javascript development
- Continuous Integration workflows
- Modernizing PHP applications
- Machine learning
