==About Me: Sabrina Stangler==
I ended up leaving because 1) RokkinCat reached out to me (see below), 2) when I challenged things, I was met with "yeah that's a good idea, sounds very ''innovative'', but ...." and then met friction at every turn when I actually tried to take action, and 3) we never got to interact with and understand the users of our product, which was very frustrating, but also just "the way things were."
===Senior Frontend Engineer, RokkinCat===
''July 2021 - presentDecember 2022''
Bringing startups' product visions to life, mostly building mobile apps with Ionic & React. I also serve as the Product Manager for our website and helped develop our vision for content. I get to wear many different hats, and it's a blast.
I jumped ship from Direct Supply to this job with very little hesitation because:
* I knew a few of the current employees (small company, 10 total)* Working with startup founders* Get to interact with our clients directly* Only frontend development (I was formerly doing frontend & backend, and I don't fancy backend development)* Better culture - employee happiness driven, if you want to change things - make it happen, and work from anywhere anytime attitude ===Software Engineer + Product Manager, Curious Bean LLC (Self-employed!)===''January 2023 - Present'' Still bring startups' product visions to life, mostly building web & mobile apps with Ionic & React. Now I just do it freelance! RokkinCat shut down end of 2022, so with a single contract lead in hand, I dove head first into freelancing.
