What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build React/Node products on cloud platforms—improving speed of delivery, performance, UX, and maintainability through iterative MVP-driven development.

I’m a Senior React Fullstack Developer and contractor with 5+ years of experience in the information technology and services industry. I use my expertise, skills, and passion to design and implement top-of-the-line software solutions for companies worldwide.

In my most recent role as a Senior React / Node Engineer, I helped a cloud-based access control platform maintain momentum by following an iterative MVP-driven approach, achieving a 2x increase in speed of development. I also improved user experience through modern UI redesigns.

Earlier, I reduced friction for users and support teams by cutting escalation tickets by 50% and decreasing the volume of support questions by 25%. I regularly led demos to showcase new features, gather feedback, and ensure alignment with customer expectations.

I’m equally focused on maintainability and delivery quality: I reduced the number of Feature Flags by 10% through systematic cleanup of legacy flags. I’ve also expanded product capabilities by 200% with impactful features such as changing passwords, updating emails, deleting accounts, and managing expenses.
