I’m Britta Rodenbeck, a frontend engineer with a passion for crafting exceptional user experiences. With nine years in the dynamic world of web and software development, I’ve had the privilege of working with startups, small companies, and enterprises contributing to innovative projects that marry form with function.
My journey in frontend engineering started with a curiosity about the intersection of design, code, and ethics. Over the years, I’ve honed my skills in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and immersed myself in cutting-edge frameworks like React and Vue. What sets me apart is not just the code I write, but the thoughtfulness I bring to the user interface, ensuring it not only meets functional requirements but delights all users—regardless of age, ability, language, or connection speed.
I am driven by the belief that technology should be a seamless extension of human experiences. Whether it is optimizing performance for a quicker user interface or diving into the intricacies of responsive design, I thrive on the challenges that frontend development presents. I see each project as an opportunity to create something not just visually appealing but also highly functional and user-centric.
Having collaborated with diverse and distributed teams, I understand the importance of effective communication and teamwork in the design and development process. I bring not only technical expertise but also a collaborative spirit, valuing open dialogue and the exchange of ideas that lead to innovative solutions.
Away from the keyboard, you’ll find me hiking, biking, and camping in the warmer months and snuggling with my cat, a good library book, and hot chocolate in the colder ones. I am studying to become a certified sommelier, with my WSET 2 in hand. I love exploring my new home city of Milwaukee, trying new bars and restaurants and finding which has the best cheese platter and curds.
Every engineer has their strengths and weaknesses. Below are the languages, frameworks, programs, etc. that I both excel with and—more importantly—love to work with.
I’m excited about the potential for meaningful collaborations and am always open to connecting with like-minded professionals. If you’re looking for a frontend engineer who combines technical proficiency with a passion for creating exceptional user experiences, or you’re looking for a friend to upgrade your Barefoot palate, let’s connect and explore the possibilities together.
