Diego Jornada
@diegojornada
Senior Full-Stack & Frontend Engineer and Tech Lead specializing in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Node.js/NestJS.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer and Tech Lead with 10+ years of experience building web products. I focus on React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Node.js/NestJS, and I bring cloud experience across Azure and GCP.
At AB InBev (BEES), I led front-end initiatives on a high-traffic e-commerce platform and designed a NestJS Backend-for-Frontend that significantly reduced page load times. Earlier at HP, I built large-scale software in cross-functional teams and helped establish strong engineering best practices, including CI/CD and automated testing.
As a Tech Lead, I care as much about people as about code: I mentor engineers, run constructive code reviews, and help teams make deliberate, well-reasoned technical decisions instead of accidental ones.
I’m especially drawn to engineering that improves real user outcomes—like observability, performance, and reliable integrations. I’m open to senior engineering and tech lead roles at remote-first, international companies.
