Brandon Tinder

I’m a full-stack software engineer with 10+ years of experience and 6+ years focused on Node.js/TypeScript, building production web applications, RESTful APIs, and backend services. I thrive in B2B SaaS teams, especially where I can deliver scalable, event-driven systems with strong operational visibility.

Most recently, as a Senior Node.js Developer, I delivered end-to-end features across full-stack React UIs and Node.js REST backends—supporting 500+ active vendors and 1,000+ annual events nationwide. I built a vendor coordination admin portal that cut project coordination overhead by ~40%, automated AI-powered workflows via GPT-4 Vision with Redis-backed queues to reduce manual processing by ~60%, and improved pipeline throughput by ~35% through event-driven data enrichment.

Earlier, at Apex Cloud, I architected APIs and nationwide ecommerce quoting flows (quote → customize → checkout), improving conversions by 25–35% and reducing order completion time by 40%. At PowerSchool Group, I supported enterprise B2B SaaS infrastructure, automated operational tasks to cut manual deployment effort by ~60%, maintained 99.9%+ uptime, and improved MTTR and reliability through monitoring, incident reviews, and resilient job processing.
