What I'm looking for

I seek a senior technical leadership role at a product-focused startup where I can architect mobile-first React Native products, mentor small teams, and ship end-to-end scalable solutions.

I am a startup‑focused technologist with over nine years of experience building mobile and web products and publishing seven apps to the Android and Apple app stores. I design architectures and develop React Native frontends and Node.js backends from Figma to production, having served as CTO and Director of Engineering.

I blend hands‑on coding with leadership: hiring and mentoring junior developers, defining APIs and integrations (Stripe, DocuSign, Firebase), and migrating backends from Firestore to Node/Mongo for scalability. I thrive on shipping end‑to‑end products—mobile apps, web dashboards, and real‑time systems—for B2C and SaaS platforms.
