What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead frontend engineering on complex products—owning architecture and delivery end-to-end, shipping iterative features, and collaborating across backend and DevOps using React/TypeScript and strong quality gates with measurable impact.

Iveri Kobalava is a frontend-led fullstack engineer with 5 years of experience and a co-founder credit. At Georgian Service Group, he was a top contributor by commit volume (~30%) on a 20+ engineer team, delivering 490+ commits and 200+ pull requests while building core logistics planning and scheduling interfaces and standardizing the frontend data layer with Redux Toolkit and TanStack Query.

At Skiper Technologies GmbH, he owned the entire frontend for 4+ years and led major modernization—migrating CRA to Vite (52 seconds to 3 seconds), refactoring a 280-file flat codebase into a 5-layer Feature-Sliced Design architecture, and building a 3-language i18n system with regression and integration tests. He also maintains StackForm, an open-source headless React form library, and works across React/TypeScript, backend services in Spring Boot, and CI/CD and Kubernetes on AWS.
