Brendan Bartlett
@brendanbartlett1
Senior software engineer specializing in React, Node, and AWS to build scalable customer-facing products.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior software engineer with 10 years of experience delivering customer-facing products, internal tools, and dashboards using full-stack web technologies. I bring a strong, end-to-end mindset across requirements gathering, design, enhancement, testing, and production.
At Verizon, I’ve led development initiatives that improved customer experiences and operational efficiency—building responsive SPAs with React/Redux and Next.js, and redesigning customer-facing sites to achieve a 28% increase in UX task success rates. I also drove reliability improvements, including a 20% reduction in post-release issues through strong test suites using Jest, Mocha, Cypress, and Postman.
I’ve modernized and scaled applications by upgrading React 17 to React 18, improving frontend performance through Webpack tuning and lazy loading, and strengthening architecture for modularity and maintainability. I’ve also contributed to authentication and security using Passport.js and JWT, and engineered RESTful APIs in Node.js and Express.
Earlier in my career, I led healthcare, logistics, and supply chain projects and helped move teams from AngularJS to React while improving engagement by 23%. I enjoy mentoring and pair programming, and I’m energized by teams that value Agile/Scrum collaboration, clean code, and practical, measurable outcomes.
