Open to full-time or contract, remote. Backend-leaning full-stack: NestJS, TypeScript, GraphQL, AWS. Currently leading backend delivery and a small team as Associate Tech Lead, looking for a role with similar ownership, not execution-only. Full overlap with EU hours. Targeting EU and US companies.

I lead backend for a multi-tenant sports SaaS platform (NestJS, TypeScript, GraphQL, AWS), and fix AI-built MVPs before they break.
What I'm looking for
I'm an Associate Tech Lead at Spadasoft, where I lead backend for Tournated, a white-label multi-tenant sports SaaS platform. My core stack is NestJS, TypeScript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, and AWS, and I bring 4+ years of React/Next.js on the frontend side too.
One concrete win from that work: I took a core flow on Tournated from 1000ms down to under 200ms, an 80% latency cut, by rethinking how the multi-tenant queries and caching worked.
Before Spadasoft, I spent time at Zweidevs and eBridge Technologies building Electron desktop apps, real-time features with WebSockets, and REST APIs in Node.js and Express. That range across frontend and backend is why I've settled into a specific niche now: hardening AI-built MVPs (Cursor, v0, Lovable, that kind of stack) so they can actually hold up under real production traffic.
I'd rather own a backend end to end and communicate clearly about trade-offs than chase a title. If that's the kind of engineer you need, I'm happy to talk.
