Coleton is very self driven and his tenacity with programming is beyond impressive. I’ve watched him go from a self taught programmer to a full-fledge professional iOS developer in a short amount of time.

I had the pleasure of working with Coleton for a little over two years, starting in our apprenticeship. He was a great coworker, always looking for what needs to be done, figuring out ways to be more efficient.

I have enjoyed working with Coleton over the last two and a half years. I found him to be hard-working, bright, and a skilled communicator. Not only was Coleton successful in his iOS engineering role at First Orion but he was also able to publish his own application to the app store.

Coleton is one of the most self driven individuals I’ve seen. We brought Coleton on as a Mobile Engineer through our Apprentice program and watched as he quickly excelled over the last couple years.

I have had the honor of working with Coleton for two and a half years. He is a self-starting, driven individual with an inquisitive mind. His communication skills are top-notch; he asks both important and hard questions to ensure that everyone is on board with an efficient solution.

I had the pleasure to meet Coleton before we started working at First Orion together. Coleton had reached out to me on LinkedIn a year before he got hired at First Orion. He’s a fast learner, committed, and talented software engineer and I strongly believe that he’ll excel in any role.

I had the pleasure of working with/leading Coleton for an action-packed 2.5 years at First Orion. Coleton came into our iOS developer apprenticeship program swinging. His passion for learning and improving was apparent on day one. Over the course of the next year and a half, Coleton matured into a well rounded, highly skilled iOS developer. For those who are looking to hire an iOS developer - if Coleton is in the market, don’t skip on this opportunity.

As a former team lead in Engineering, when hiring for a role, I always looked for the perfect balance between technical skills and personality traits. I would characterize Coleton as the perfect candidate to meet the requirements of a skilled engineer and one of the best work ethics I have seen in an employee.

I highly recommend Coleton for any ISO engineering role. He has demonstrated exceptional technical skills and rapid adaptability to new technologies. One of his significant accomplishments includes spearheading the implementation of a Firebase library that simplifies the interactions between Firebase’s core feature sets, such as RemoteConfig, CrashLytics, Analytics, and Logging. His ability to implement substantial technical enhancements and dedication to his craft make him an excellent fit.

I had the pleasure to work with Coleton at First Orion. He was able to succeed at any problem that was given to him. He shows excellent communication skills, and I am fairly certain that leadership will be in his future if he so chooses. Coleton has shown his passion not only by his effort on the job, but also, by his effort to hone his craft outside of work. I would recommend Coleton for any type of software engineering position.
