My proactive approach to code refactoring and implementing best practices has led to the successful migration and optimization of core applications, ensuring compliance and stability.
In my recent project, Orbitide, I engineered a full-stack personal finance tracker, utilizing React and TypeScript for the frontend and Python with Django/DRF and FastAPI for the backend.
