About Me

Hello! I'm Edward Semo

Hello, I’m Edward Semo, a software developer and IT professional with over a decade of hands-on experience in web development, system design, and IT solutions. My background spans across PHP (plain and Laravel), Python (Django), C#/.NET, and JavaScript frameworks like Vue, HTMX, and Tailwind CSS, giving me a solid foundation for building both simple websites and complex SaaS platforms.

I started programming at a young age, driven by curiosity and a love for problem-solving. Over the years, I’ve worked on projects ranging from corporate web applications to custom automation tools that streamline workflows and save teams valuable time. In today’s AI era, I also explore ways to integrate AI-driven automation and intelligent workflows, helping businesses become more efficient and adaptable.

What defines me most is my strong work ethic and adaptability. Learning new tools, languages, or frameworks comes naturally, and I thrive in environments where innovation meets real-world impact. Whether working independently or as part of a team, I bring a focus on clean code, scalability, and reliable delivery.

I’m currently open to full-time roles, contract opportunities, and remote collaborations where I can apply my skills to create meaningful solutions.
