I managed them directly

This developer worked as a Software Developer Intern. During their time with us, they created features such as an email signature generator, website builder, services help quiz, and other marketing tools designed to help small businesses drive sales quickly and grow their impact.
This developer responded well to feedback, communicated professionally and promptly via Slack and email, and brought both creativity and strong technical skills to their work. They handled guidance from me—a non-technical co-founder—with clarity, even when directions were ambiguous.
Having worked with this developer twice, I would not hesitate to recommend them. They are a loyal, kind, and motivated employee, always willing to take on challenges and deliver high-quality results.
I look forward to seeing the next steps in their technical career, as they have immense potential and would be a valuable addition to any company looking to onboard a junior developer eager to grow.
