I had the pleasure of working with Elian Braja as a Senior Software Engineer contractor in the EdTech space. He consistently delivered high-quality work, handled shifting priorities with reliability, and brought strong expertise in Ruby on Rails, system architecture, and API development. I’d gladly work with him again.
I had the pleasure of working with Elian for 4-5 years in Albania. During this time, he demonstrated an impressive ability to quickly learn new technologies and adapt to evolving project requirements. He is reliable, diligent, and consistently delivers high-quality work. I highly recommend him for any Rails or back end development role.
Elian was very pleasant to work with, contributed to the growth of our PMS software, and quickly adapted to the hospitality domain — a very challenging and technical field. Always available to help with small changes, Elian is also an ideal partner for projects with a deeper scope and broader context that require analytical skills.
