@coronarider
Senior software engineer building scalable products across web and microservices.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of professional experience in the IT industry, working across the start-up to enterprise spectrum. I’ve built great products from “web app to mobile development,” spanning front-end and back-end REST API work with a strong focus on software architecture.
In my current role at EPIC (Remote), I built and optimized RESTful APIs and microservices using Node.js and NestJS to improve financial data integration and system performance. I also architected scalable back-end services, developed reusable UI components with React and TailwindCSS, automated reporting and analytics workflows with Python, and streamlined delivery through CI/CD with automated testing and monitoring.
Previously at Paxos (Remote), I developed consumer-facing product features using React, Typescript, and Python/Django, implemented PostgreSQL for real-time transaction processing, and improved quality with Jest and Cypress test suites. Earlier at Opendoor and Sideshow, I delivered full-stack features across responsive web apps, Django/GraphQL back ends, and AWS deployments—supporting production distributed systems and high-impact product work like recommendation improvements and internal tooling.
