Diego Braga
@diegobraga1
I build scalable React and Angular applications, micro-frontends, design systems, and real-time web experiences.
What I'm looking for
I've built enterprise financial applications at Glass Lewis and global, brand-agnostic web and mobile platforms at Hertz, working across Angular, React, TypeScript, micro-frontends, and React Native.
At Hertz, I evolved a React and TypeScript micro-frontend ecosystem, delivered features for global brands, maintained a mobile application, extended the design system, and documented reusable UI patterns in Storybook. I also strengthened reliability through Jest and Cypress testing.
Earlier, I delivered React, Next.js, GraphQL, and real-time SaaS applications at Templ8, then built end-to-end virtual-event and 3D experiences at Kosmos using Node.js, AWS, Three.js, BabylonJS, REST, gRPC, MySQL, and Prisma.
