Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Penney is a versatile software engineer with nine years of experience specializing in JavaScript/HTML5 front-end development and practical full-stack know-how, currently building products at ShakePrint Simulations. He pairs commercial app development—shipping React and React Native apps to both Apple and Google stores—with hands-on hardware experience running a dozen-plus 3D printers and designing CAD solutions that reduce e-waste. As a computer science teacher and occasional educator, he brings disciplined project management, stakeholder communication, and industry workflows (Git/GitHub) into both classrooms and teams. His background in music and aviation surfaces in methodical creativity and a tinkerer’s approach to prototyping: from custom drones and balsa model airplanes to embedded soldering and firmware setup. Comfortable across the stack, he’s equally at home debugging hardware, mentoring students, or delivering polished user interfaces.
