What Recruiters Can't See On My GitHub
Short summary
A developer reflects on their diverse GitHub portfolio (100+ repos in React, Python, healthcare, AI, automation) and reveals the unifying theme: all projects solve the problem of reducing repetitive work. This philosophy—identifying patterns across domains and building tools to eliminate friction—demonstrates systems thinking that recruiters might miss. Great developers are defined by their core problem-solving instincts, not just technology variety.
