Isaac Melo
@isaacmelo
Front-end engineer specializing in React and TypeScript, building scalable, user-centered web applications.
What I'm looking for
I am a front-end engineer with 4 years of experience building high-quality React and TypeScript applications, primarily in the health and AI sectors. I prioritize usability, scalable architecture, and clean, maintainable code.
As a founding developer I led front-end architecture, shipped four professional projects from scratch, migrated a codebase from CRA to Vite, and created a design system that accelerated page delivery by 150%. I’ve driven technical decisions that turned products into core sales drivers.
I work across the stack when needed, contributing to Python, Django, FastAPI, and Go services, building real-time features with Django Channels and WebSockets, and improving database performance through query tuning and indexing.
I enjoy mentoring early-career developers, participating in hiring, and collaborating in startup environments where I can take ownership, improve product usability, and deliver measurable impact through strong communication and pragmatic engineering.
