I am looking for autonomous teams that value robust architecture over cutting corners. I want to build complex, scalable systems using React/Next.js and Python/Node.js. My focus is on writing clean code, optimizing performance, and handling high-throughput data securely. Open to global remote roles or opportunities offering full visa sponsorship to the Netherlands/EU.

Senior Full Stack Engineer (React, Next.js, Node/Python). 5 years building high-performance UIs & scaling FinTech/MedTech APIs to 10k+ RPM.
What I'm looking for
I am an AI-native Senior Full Stack Engineer with 5 years of experience building modular, high-performance systems at scale. I sit at the intersection of product-obsessed frontend development (React/Next.js/TypeScript) and complex backend orchestration (Python/Node.js).
Throughout my career, I’ve specialized in driving UI/UX excellence, optimizing core web vitals, and architecting resilient backend systems across the MedTech and FinTech sectors. I do my best work in autonomous, high-trust environments where I can own the end-to-end delivery of a feature—from the database schema up to the UI components.
Career Highlights:
- AI & Agentic Orchestration: At Publicis Sapient, I co-architected the Agent Pipeline Manager for Optum. I engineered a Python-based asynchronous framework to orchestrate complex, resumable multi-agent workflows. I built real-time callback registries using FastAPI WebSockets, allowing live event monitoring of state machines with zero latency.
- FinTech Scale: At Rapipay Fintech, I developed a high-throughput Payment Gateway Integration API using Node.js and Express that securely handled 10,000+ RPM for AEPS and CICO payment systems, while reducing transaction processing latency by 10%.
- Frontend Performance: I led the end-to-end development of the Practice By Numbers Patient Portal, boosting the web-app's performance by 50% (validated via Google Lighthouse) and supporting a rapidly growing user base of over 100,000 users.
- Micro-Frontend Delivery: I led the delivery of the Account Manager micro-frontend for Publicis Sapient client Optum in under 1 month, successfully replacing a legacy system without disruption and achieving a 25% boost in initial page load speed by leveraging Next.js SSR/SSG.
My Tech Stack:
- Frontend: React.js, Next.js 14, TypeScript, Redux, TanStack Query, TailwindCSS, Material-UI, Storybook, PrimeReact
- Backend: Node.js, Express, Python, FastAPI, REST/GraphQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB
- Infrastructure & DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes (K8s), AWS, Azure, CI/CD, GitHub Actions
- Testing: Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress
I am highly comfortable operating independently in remote environments, making technical and product decisions, and leveraging modern AI tooling (Cursor, Claude, Copilot) to radically accelerate delivery cycles without compromising code quality.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Remediated security vulnerabilities and improved compliance by implementing fixes flagged by Azure and Dependabot, and securing access via SSO and role-based access control for 10,000+ external users. Led micro-frontend delivery for account management and improved performance/SEO using Next.js SSR/SSG while resolving frontend-blocking issues related to Spring Boot and SQL backends.
Delivered hotfixes for high-impact production issues and led development and maintenance of a responsive Patient Portal to meet pre-launch criteria. Improved performance and localization by optimizing the web app with code splitting and lazy loading, integrating Google Translate, and automated testing with Jest and React Testing Library.
