Full-stack engineer specializing in React (Next.js, TypeScript), building type-safe, high-performance web applications.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Frontend & Full-Stack Engineer with 4+ years of experience specializing in the React ecosystem (Next.js, TypeScript). I deliver type-safe, scalable web applications, optimizing dashboard performance and managing complex global states with Redux and Zustand.
Most recently, I worked as a Software Engineer Contractor for Aurora Agency (Remote), where I designed and implemented the AffiliateModule from scratch using NestJS backend logic and a high-performance Next.js frontend. I also built security and auth features like a Login Backup Code, created an Admin CRM with complex datatables/filtering/CRUD, and polished UI/UX and mobile responsiveness using TailwindCSS.
Earlier, I built and shipped React-based products as an Independent Contractor, acting as a technical consultant for local businesses and handling full-cycle delivery from UI/UX wireframing to deployment and maintenance. At Flowerwork, I reduced dashboard load time by ~30% with Next.js and TailwindCSS, integrated Rust-based backend APIs to cut auth issues by 40%, and improved delivery by standardizing the GitHub PR process.
Before that, I supported small-to-medium React landing pages and personal/client-driven projects as a Freelancer (2017–2024). I also bring an attention to reliability from QA work at Ubisoft (150+ bugs logged), and I continue strengthening my foundation through Full Stack Web Development (The Odin Project) and CS50X/Computer Science coursework.
