Senior Full Stack Developer with over 9 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, high-performance web applications for industries such as e-commerce, finance, and healthcare. Renowned for exceptional technical proficiency and a strong ability to analyze and optimize full-stack architectures, I specialize in building responsive, user-centric applications, seamless API integrations, and scalable cloud-based solutions. Proficient in modern JavaScript frameworks and tools, I excel at leveraging React for dynamic frontends, Node.js and Express for efficient backends, and MongoDB for robust, flexible database solutions. My expertise includes RESTful API and GraphQL development, implementing CI/CD pipelines, containerization with Docker, and deploying secure, scalable applications using AWS services like EC2, S3, Lambda, and RDS. I am skilled at employing Agile methodologies, test-driven development (TDD), and modern software engineering design patterns to ensure quality and efficiency in project delivery. With a strong foundation in state management (Redux, Context API), performance optimization, and creating reusable UI components, I drive innovation and deliver user-friendly applications aligned with business goals. My expertise in team collaboration tools like Git and JIRA, coupled with strong problem-solving abilities, enables me to thrive in cross-functional team environments. I am deeply committed to continuous learning, and staying up to date with the latest advancements in JavaScript technologies to consistently deliver outstanding results.
