Robert Radecki
@robertradecki
Senior backend engineer building scalable Node.js APIs on AWS for enterprise reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 8+ years building scalable, high-throughput services and APIs for enterprise clients, specializing in Node.js and TypeScript, REST API design, and cloud-native deployments on AWS. I’ve led refactors and testing initiatives that improved performance and reduced incident rate, including typical latency reduction and fewer production rollbacks.
I turn product requirements into resilient backend architectures, designing robust endpoints and backward-compatible changes that support smooth enterprise rollouts. From modular microservices and containerized deployments to CI/CD automation, observability with CloudWatch, and disciplined testing with Jest/SuperTest and Mocha, I focus on reliability under high load—and I also mentor others to raise backend quality and performance profiling skills.
