I'm Caleb
An Ohio based Full Stack Software Engineer, currently working at NinjaTrader building trading tools.
I have a passion for exploring new places and cultures, and I enjoy finding unique ways to experience them. One of my favourite activities is Paragliding, which provides an exciting perspective on the world and the beauty of nature.
About me
While I've contributed to notable companies like NinjaTrader, eXp Realty, and Forward Thinking, one of my proudest achievements was revolutionizing a small aviation manufacturing business. I led the development of a comprehensive manufacturing management system for Sport Aircraft Seats, where I assembled and directed a skilled team to transform manual processes into a streamlined digital workflow. The solution we created not only optimized production efficiency and reduced manufacturing errors but also enhanced customer experience through real-time order tracking and automated updates. This project exemplifies my approach to software engineering: taking complex business challenges and crafting elegant, user-focused solutions that deliver tangible results. Whether working with enterprise systems or specialized manufacturing operations, I bring the same dedication to understanding core business needs and implementing transformative technical solutions.

Skills
I spent a year searching for a project management app to organize all the custom jobs from our customers. All of our products are made to order with many customization fields and I couldn't find an app that would do it all. The app Caleb created for my business is nearly perfect and he continues to improve it as I provide feedback. What used to take me all day with paperwork and whiteboards now takes only a few hours. I can also track progress or make updates remotely. I'm planning a 3-week trip and plan to work a few hours remotely using the app.
