Hugh Andreson
@hughandreson
Senior Fullstack Engineer specializing in React/Next.js and scalable SaaS platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience delivering frontend and fullstack solutions in SaaS, FinTech, and collaborative platforms. I focus on building high-performance, user-centric applications and modern web architectures that drive efficiency and reliability.
At Stripe, I architected and maintained payments infrastructure across React/Next.js/TypeScript with Java, Spring Boot, and .NET microservices—supporting 50k+ merchants across EU and US. I implemented Stripe Radar fraud prevention, reducing fraudulent transactions by 32%, and migrated legacy Java Spring Boot services to modern .NET microservices, improving latency by 28%.
I also led real-time collaboration work at Miro, developing Miro Board editor features with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. That effort increased active collaboration sessions by 40% across European enterprise clients, and I supported Marketplace integrations for 100k+ users with backend C# .NET services.
Earlier, I built automation and developer tooling at Zapier and worked on hosting/edge capabilities at Vercel. I bring strong CI/CD and Agile collaboration habits, with a consistent emphasis on scalable APIs, event-driven patterns, and measurable performance improvements.
