Paul Bissex — Archive
I'm a senior web application engineer who works primarily with Python and TypeScript/JavaScript. I co-wrote one of the first books on the Django web framework. I like Go, Rust, Haskell, and Clojure too. I've been a full-time remote worker since 2010. I live in Greenfield, MA with my wife Kathleen and our twin boys. I like mountain biking in the summer and snowboarding in the winter. ©2025 Paul Bissex • Hosting: AWS Amplify • Theme: hugo-creative-portfolio-theme ported from Bootstrapious to Hugo by Kishan B Things that are too old for my resume or portfolio, but still part of my story.
