Jose Duran

Software engineer in NYC

Hi, I'm Jose.

I'm a front-end engineer who enjoys diving into algorithms and performance optimizations. I believe great web applications should be both beautiful and fast.

I have worked for large companies, startups and medical practices. Some of my clients are Google (worked on their official blog), academy award winner Alfonso CuarĂ³n (built the website for his movie 'Roma'), as well as practices and startups in the oncology and mental health fields.

Before working as a developer, I went to medical school where I was trained in clinical research and statistical programming. After graduating, I became a post-doctoral research fellow and studied the use of robotic radiosurgery to treat pancreatic cancer. You can see my publications here.

It was during my research years that I spent more time programming (R, Python and JavaScript) and fell in love with the craft. In 2020 I decided to make the switch and became a full time software engineer.
