At Wellnite, I led a 4-person engineering team for 3+ years, owning end-to-end delivery of complex full-stack features across React Native, Next.js, and NestJS.
I personally architected Wellbits, Wellnite’s internal digital incentive currency, and drove platform-wide improvements like Stripe idempotency, Redis caching, and Prometheus/Grafana observability.
