Phillip Chaffee is a Founding Software Engineer at Sela. He possess expertise in quickbooks, excel, finance, financial statements, microsoft word and 57 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Phillip is an extremely talented engineer who excels at developing both software and the team's processes to drive collaboration across the company. He broadcasts his train of thought in a succinct and unassuming way that quickly builds mutual trust and understanding with whomever is lucky enough to work with him. Phillip has a natural ability to (1) identify the technical themes that are key to delivering maximum value to our customers, (2) organize consensus internally around those objectives, and (3) individually+collaboratively deliver the technical goods.", "I worked with Phil for 4 years at Chatham Financial being on the same team for 2 years. I enjoyed working with Phil because he asks great questions to foresee where problems might arise in a solution's architecture, testing plan, or performance. He really enjoys the learning process and isn't afraid to try new things. He is genuine in his discussions, meaning he's not afraid to ask for help, or share his opinion when he thinks there is a better way to approach a problem. He's self sufficient in that he knows how to find the answers to most of his questions on his own, or at least at the point of asking questions has a very clear objective he wants to achieve. Phil also brings a lot of positive energy to a team, since he joined that team I felt the culture of the team was improved from an already great level and the team was very comfortable with each other which allowed me to both enjoy my time on the team and know we were producing great work. Lastly I’d say Phil is a great listener, he’s always happy to hear a solution that’s different from his own and go back and forth to figure out why it’s better or worse and what the trade offs are. I truly hope to be able to work with Phil again in the future.", and "I had the pleasure of working with Phillip for three years, and I would highly recommend them in any software development role. They came on the team in a junior role, but ramped up faster than most senior devs I've seen. The speed at which they learn is incredible, and that applies to both software and business domain knowledge. Phillip has a good mind for architecture, and their ability to understand the business side made them vital to high level design meetings, and giving users what they really need instead of what they initially think they want. The strength and breadth of their experience speaks for itself in the frameworks they've worked in to date, but I would not doubt that Phillip could pick up any new tech stack with ease. I would highly recommend Phillip to any company looking for a talented senior developer."
