Profile Picture of Jamie Braaksma

About Me

I’m Jamie Braaksma, a Full-Stack Software Developer based in Calgary, AB. My lifelong fascination with mathematics and puzzles fuels my love of coding. Solving complex problems is what got me into software development, and it’s what keeps me here.

I thrive in Agile environments and deliver clean, scalable, maintainable solutions across desktop, web, and mobile platforms.

Core Strengths

  • Languages: C++, C#, HTML/CSS, Java, JavaScript, Typescript, Python, SQL
  • Frameworks & Tooling: .NET (WPF/MAUI, ASP.NET, Xamarin), React, Node.js, Express, Blazor, QT
  • Databases & Services: SQL Server, MongoDB, Firebase, SQLite
  • DevOps & Testing: GitLab CI/CD, Azure, TFS/GitHub, Robot Framework

Continuous learning is central to my approach. Rather than focusing on public releases of personal projects, I use them as a sandbox to explore emerging technologies, refine best practices, and deepen my understanding of software architecture.

Feel free to explore the section for a glimpse of my experiments, and consult my Résumé for details on my professional journey. If you’d like to connect or discuss opportunities,
