Senior full-stack engineer, building web products since 2010. From 2023 to 2026 I built a publishing SaaS at Publi end to end, from prototype to production, with Next.js, React, TypeScript, NestJS and PostgreSQL.

I owned the no-code Design Studio and the responsive styling engine behind it (40+ settings panels with separate desktop, tablet and mobile values), 30+ custom blocks for the rich-text editor, a drag-and-drop form builder, and members-only access with passwordless login. I started from Figma designs and later designed new tools myself.

I also built fast reader sites with a custom React Server Components renderer and real-time publication analytics on Tinybird, upgraded the platform to Next.js 16 and React 19, and wrote most of the Playwright end-to-end suite. I took part in code review and on-call.

At Vercel, I worked on the Shopify integration for Next.js Commerce and helped enterprise account teams with Next.js solutions.

Earlier, I built quote-to-invoice systems for HVAC and machinery businesses, and donation platforms with Flutter mobile apps.

Side project: Naveta, a live public-transit tracker for Cluj-Napoca. I vibe-coded it solo with AI coding agents, on purpose in technologies outside my comfort zone: a Rust API (Axum, REST, SSE, gRPC), server-rendered web with Maud and htmx, a MapLibre PWA with offline support, an ETA model pipeline (scikit-learn to ONNX) and a shared Rust core with Kalman-filter vehicle tracking.
