What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own end-to-end product features across web and mobile, ship maintainable React/Django APIs, use analytics and monitoring to improve outcomes, and collaborate closely to deliver measurable user impact.

I’m a Full-Stack Software Engineer with hands-on experience building scalable web and mobile applications using React, React Native, Django, GraphQL, and TypeScript. I deliver end-to-end features across frontend and backend, designing maintainable APIs and collaborating on architecture decisions in production.

At Walking on Earth, I built and maintained production web and mobile product features using React, React Native, Django, and GraphQL. I improved UI consistency, performance, and maintainability with ReactJS and Tailwind CSS, added analytics instrumentation with Firebase and Mixpanel, and integrated Sentry monitoring to speed up debugging. I also refactored legacy components to reduce technical debt and leveraged AI-assisted workflows to improve development efficiency and documentation.

Earlier, I co-developed a Video-on-Demand platform at Nifty Works using Angular, Django, REST APIs, and Google Cloud Platform—handling backend components, database schema, and media workflows. I’ve also combined engineering and data work as a part-time Developer & Data Analyst, managing WordPress content for SEO, producing insights with Google Analytics, and building a recommendation system using social listening signals and engagement trends.
