Frederick Reckeweg
@frederickreckeweg
Senior software engineer specializing in full-stack React and microservices, delivering scalable, high-performance applications.
What I'm looking for
I’m a passionate and results-driven Software Engineer with strong problem-solving skills and a solid foundation in full-stack development. I design, develop, and maintain scalable applications while ensuring high performance and reliability. I’m known for excellent teamwork and collaboration, and I bring a proactive mindset to quickly understand requirements and drive meaningful improvements.
In my most recent role as a Senior Full Stack Developer, I built responsive, high-performance React UI components for smooth scrolling and fast image loading. On the backend, I designed scalable microservices with Node.js, created RESTful APIs, optimized queries and indexing for high traffic, and collaborated with ML engineers to integrate recommendation and search functionality using Python-based services. I also supported CI/CD pipelines, monitored system performance in cloud environments, and reduced latency and improved API response times to help the platform scale to millions of users.
Earlier, I delivered secure dashboards and transaction features with React and Node.js in a financial product context, integrating banking APIs with strong security practices (authentication, authorization, encryption). I’ve also worked on real-time SaaS marketplace experiences using React with WebSockets and event-driven APIs, and on SaaS monetization infrastructure with React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Stripe—always prioritizing clean, maintainable code, debugging complex issues, and continuous learning.
