Experienced software engineer specializing in front-end and full-stack web application development.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced software engineer with over 7 years building web applications for marketing, advertising, and SaaS industries. I design and ship user-focused front-end experiences with React, Redux, Vue.js and TypeScript while architecting scalable back-end APIs using Node.js, Express, PHP and MySQL.
I have led significant projects including an internal React+TypeScript Typing Tool Creator that saved hundreds of engineering hours, delivered six-figure custom data analysis solutions as primary engineer, and built a travel insurance platform integrating multiple provider APIs and payment systems. I collaborate closely with designers and engineering teams, own deployment and DevOps tasks, and prioritize high-performance, maintainable code.
