Craig Curtis
@craigcurtis
Senior software engineer specializing in data-integrity platforms and data-heavy React/TypeScript UIs with AI-native engineering.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior software engineer with 10+ years delivering high-availability platforms where data integrity is mission-critical—spanning a Gartner top-4 DDI platform and a multi-tenant global travel system. I specialize in TypeScript, React, and Node.js, with C#/.NET backend work, and I build data-heavy UIs with a strong focus on localization, accessibility, and reliable enterprise patterns.
In recent roles, I engineered an EN/CN localization framework and cross-app theming system powering expansion into new markets, authored a Temporal-based date/time package to eliminate timezone bugs, and shipped flagship products with WCAG 2.1 AAA and 100% test coverage. I also maintain open-source tools (6 published npm packages), and I’m currently deepening Python and FastAPI for LLM integration and agent orchestration—always aiming to compress delivery cycles without sacrificing correctness.
