Hello, I am Petar Crljenica
and I'm pleased to welcome you to hirepetar.com!
I am a Software Engineer currently based in Portland, OR.

About Me

Armed with a youthful exuberance that cannot be matched, amazing problem solving skills, great software development skills, I plan on taking my next step as a Developer.

I obtained my bachelors degree of science in Computer Science from Portland State University. I was taught software development through Linux, Vim, C++, and C originally. From there I went on to teach myself HTML, CSS, Javascript, Postgres, WordPress, AWS EC2/Lightsail, and currently React.

Early Life

When I was 4 years old, I moved from Bosnia to Portland with my parents. My upbringing here has allowed me to become fluent in English and Serbo-Croation.

The University of Oregon

I originally attended the university of Oregon studying mathematics. I took a few entry level computer science courses and found a passion for coding and problem solving.

Portland State University

I moved back to Portland to be closer with family and took up getting my bachelors in computer science from PSU. Here I saw that I loved the aspect of being able to work with others to complete an end product that has tangible results, and thats where I saw I wanted to eventually do product management.

Currently

I am doing freelance web development currently. I am looking for full time work with full stack design for web/app development. I have most recently completed a commercial website for a local Oregon painting company. Currently working on a project using Ionic React.

What I Do

I have specilized with front end web design. I have a knack for overall software development and picking up new skills.

This has all been made possible through my drive, passion, and superb charisma that allows me the ability to work well with others while growing and learning myself. Below is a nice visual of languages, design styles, and environments I've used.
