What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build production web apps end-to-end—shipping strong frontend, REST backends, and reliable testing—while expanding my data and accessibility skills in a collaborative Agile team.

I’m a Full-stack Web Developer designing, developing, testing, and maintaining production-grade web applications in an Agile engineering environment. I translate business requirements and data insights into scalable, maintainable technical solutions, while partnering cross-functionally to ship confidently.

At Diesel Laptops, I develop and enhance full-stack web applications across frontend, backend, and data layers. I build reusable UI components with Vue.js (Quasar), TypeScript, JavaScript, Vuex, and AWS Amplify authentication, while implementing Laravel REST APIs, middleware, authentication flows, and optimized database queries.

I also strengthen reliability and product quality through engineering practices like exploratory data analysis (EDA) with Pandas and SQL, and end-to-end automated testing with Playwright. I contribute to additional codebases using React, Remix, TanStack Start, and TanStack Query, and I follow clean architecture principles in backend services built with Django and REST standards.

Beyond my day-to-day work, I’ve led project ownership—documenting internal dashboard systems and knowledge transfer, improving Playwright test reliability and maintainability, and promoting Section 508 accessibility compliance. I value iterative development, clear documentation, and mentorship—helping teams reduce risk, improve usability, and streamline delivery.
