“I was particularly impressed by Andrew's ability to tackle challenges at both the tactical and strategic level.
Andrew was instrumental in the implementation and development of a broad reimagining of Lyft’s web presence. He successfully contributed to updates to both styling and UX/UI patterns as part of a shared component library, frequently working with a high level of autonomy. I greatly enjoyed his partnership throughout the project, and was particularly impressed by his ability to tackle challenges at both the tactical and strategic level, which provided significant value to the design system overall. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Andrew again.
“Andrew's appetite for growth, excellent communication, and collaboration skills make him a valuable asset for any engineering team lucky enough to have him.
Andrew has been a fantastic addition to the Credit Karma Assets team. From the day he joined, he showed much enthusiasm for the product, the mission, and career opportunities.
In the year that we've worked together, I have seen Andrew grow and take on increasingly challenging projects. It was great to see Andrew collaborate with many cross-functional stakeholders and deliver technically sophisticated products.
Andrew's appetite for growth, excellent communication, and collaboration skills make him a valuable asset for any engineering team lucky enough to have him. I would be thrilled to work with Andrew again should an opportunity arise. I think Andrew is a very talented engineer, and I have no doubt he will have a great career in software engineering.
“Andrew is one of the most technically driven and thoughtful engineers I've encountered. He helped lead some extremely technical projects that made an impact well beyond our organization.
I worked with Andrew at Credit Karma for two and a half years as his direct manager - he is one of the most technically driven and thoughtful engineers I've encountered. He helped lead some extremely technical projects that made an impact well beyond our organization, and he also does an excellent job collaborating with product on user facing features.
I have no doubt Andrew will make undoubtedly be a force multiplier on any project and team he is on in the future.
“Andrew is a thoughtful, dedicated and creative software engineer, and a great asset to the growth and success of his entire team.
Andrew is a thoughtful, dedicated and creative software engineer. I worked with him for over two years at Credit Karma and was impressed during that time with his ability to work through problems to get to the best, most comprehensive solution, not just one that works. Andrew also dedicates a good amount of his time to documentation and knowledge-sharing with his fellow engineers, making him a great asset to the growth and success of his entire team.
I would recommend Andrew for any kind of engineering team, particularly one with complex cross-functional needs or intense structural requirements. Andrew is good at working within complicated software frameworks to understand their interconnected dependencies and make smart decisions about development from that perspective.
Specific areas I think Andrew excels in are: - platform software development (building tools and software to support company-wide engineering) - requests/communication across microservices - troubleshooting and error/log analysis - team knowledge-sharing
“Andrew is results oriented, proactive and a strong technical lead — a strong communicator who always steps up to get the job done.

“I'd strongly recommend Andrew if you're looking for a top notch freelance web developer. If the opportunity arose I'd hire him again.
I had the pleasure of working with Andrew when I managed the Developer Platform and Global Eng teams at Lyft. During that time, we brought Andrew on to help us with a few web development projects, namely the complete overhaul of www.lyft.com/developers (which was an important portal for partners and developers building on top of the Lyft API).
Andrew was able to quickly get up to speed on Lyft's web dev framework and bring his own React skills into play to lead the rebuild of the site. Throughout the project and beyond, I appreciated Andrew's communication skills and how he continually kept me up-to-date with the progress of the projects he worked on. The combination of strong web development and communication skills made Andrew a joy to work with.
I'd strongly recommend Andrew if you're looking for a top notch freelance web developer. If the opportunity arose I'd hire him again.
“If you're looking for a strong communicator to take the long view on a project, this is your man.
How one solves problems is not only reflected in their work but also in who they are as a person. After watching Andrew solve a myriad of problems, it's apparent that he's a great architect and a mensch.
Andrew delivers under deadlines and produces forward leaning code which holds up long after it's initial release. If you're looking for a strong communicator to take the long view on a project, this is your man.

He has a great knack for hearing and communicating the heart of a company/client, and it’s a painless process when he is involved.

I have with worked with Andrew on various web development projects over the past couple years. He is easily one of the most talented web developers I have ever met.

“I can’t imagine working with anyone other than Andrew and his team–they are the best, and they are now stuck with us, forever!
I’ve been in this business a long time and have had the pleasure of working with lots of talented designers & programmers.
It wasn’t until we (LSE) were introduced to Believe Labs that we found a one stop-shop for everything design & programming. I can’t imagine working with anyone other than these guys–they are the best, and they are now stuck with us, forever!
“I’ve had Andrew train other team members because of his level of skill and ability to communicate clearly.

“Andrew's friendly and approachable manner made it a pleasure to work with him.
Andrew was contracting for Lyft for over a year, supporting the Frontend Platform team remotely in the relaunch of lyft.com and beyond. Andrew worked independently on several projects, contributing landing pages, React components, style updates and more. He was instrumental to delivering multiple projects on time.
Andrew has an eye for UI and went out of his way to align implementation with wireframes and layouts. His friendly and approachable manner made it a pleasure to work with him.
“Driven and dedicated, he's a broadly skilled engineer — a definite impact player for any team.
I provided infrastructure support to Andrew on a project to expand deployment capability at Credit Karma. He was able to simultaneously manage the complexities of the project, the project plan, do the application implementation, and coordinate with me about infrastructure requirements simultaneously.
One of the most impressive things about him is the sheer work output even before the introduction of AI-first development. Driven and dedicated, he's a broadly skilled engineer with deep knowledge of frontend development, service development, package deployment, project management, and can still write a state machine if needed — a definite impact player for any team.
“Andrew's work is superb and we look forward to continuing to use him for future projects.
We have been working with Andrew and creative people at Believe Labs for over a year. They have helped us with a variety of projects and have always been extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. Their work is superb and we look forward to continuing to use them for future projects.

“I would highly recommend using Andrew’s services–I am very happy!
I have used Andrew Martin for sometime with my website needs. I have recently had him make me a new website with a new logo. The site is very user friendly, and many of my clients have commented on how attractive the site is and how easy it is to use.
One thing that makes it easy for me, is that I can make changes on my site by myself—I am not a savvy computer person, so this is a big plus for me. I would highly recommend using Andrew’s services–I am very happy!
“Andrew, among other things is a Web Development Wunderkind.
Andrew, among other things is a Web Development Wunderkind. Not sure how, but he manages to keep a level head when stuck in the middle between very exacting designers and very demanding clients like us.

We are psyched to have worked with him and look forward to keeping the relationship going as our needs evolve.
