I build React and Next.js applications that automate enterprise workflows and reporting.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Rapidtrade, I build and maintain React.js and Next.js features across more than five enterprise projects serving over 20 business customers and 5,000 active users.
I designed a workflow automation pipeline connecting DynamoDB order data with BigQuery, reducing manual reporting effort by about 30%. I also built AWS Athena and S3 reporting tools that replaced spreadsheet-based delivery, stock-level, and operations reporting.
Previously at Active Media Industries, I delivered client-facing web and mobile applications with React.js, Next.js, and React Native. I worked directly with clients to gather requirements, scope technical solutions, and deliver features end-to-end.
I'm comfortable across frontend and backend development, from TypeScript and TanStack Query to Python, Golang, SQL, and AWS. I also contribute to code reviews, CI/CD deployments, debugging, technical documentation, and mentoring interns.
