JAY SAWWALAKHE
@jaysawwalakhe
Full-stack developer building MERN apps end-to-end with React and Node.js.
What I'm looking for
I design, build, and ship complete web applications using React.js, Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB, and I’m comfortable owning projects end-to-end—from frontend component architecture and state management to backend REST API design, authentication, and database schema optimization. I also deploy finished products to production on Vercel and Render, with a focus on reliable integration, clean APIs, and measurable performance improvements.
On MindWolf, I independently architected the data models, built and documented 15+ REST API endpoints, implemented JWT authentication with role-based access control, and optimized MongoDB Atlas queries through indexing and refined Mongoose schema design—reducing average response time by 30%. I’m currently expanding into TypeScript and Redux to support larger, more complex frontend codebases, while continuing to build production-minded features like image uploads, rich text editing, and API-integrated experiences.
