I operate as an Independent Contractor (B2B), partnering with companies such as Grubhub to solve their most complex technical challenges. I bring a Product Engineering mindset to my contract engagements, owning the technical lifecycle from architectural design to revenue impact, rather than just delivering tickets. My key differentiators are system resilience and observability. I focus on building robust architectures that can withstand failure, implementing deep Datadog instrumentation to proactively catch production issues before they affect users. In parallel, I am actively prototyping AI solutions with Python. I build personal RAG pipelines and autonomous agents to explore how LLMs can automate workflows, bringing modern adaptability and agentic capabilities to my engineering toolkit. ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ต๐ป๐ผ๐น๐ผ๐ด๐ถ๐ฒ๐ โข Core: JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript, React, Node.js. โข Frameworks: Next.js, Redux, Express.js, Nest.js. โข AI/Prototyping: Python (Scripting), OpenAI API, Vercel AI SDK. โข Data: PostgreSQL, GraphQL. โข Styling: LESS, SASS/SCSS, styled-components, Tailwind. โข Testing: Jest, React Testing Library. โข Visualization: OpenLayers, D3, Highcharts, Three.js (Performance Tuning). ๐ง๐ผ๐ผ๐น๐ โข Datadog (Custom Metrics & SLOs), Sentry, New Relic. โข Docker, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure, Netlify. โข Git, Jira, Bitbucket, Storybook, Cursor, Claude Code. ๐ข๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฆ๐ธ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ โข System Design: Offline Data Sync, Micro-Frontends. โข Leadership: Legacy Code Refactoring, RFC/Design Doc Writing. โข Remote: Asynchronous Communication, Self-Managed Delivery. ๐ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐น๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ฒ๐ that value technical ownership, system stability, and the pragmatic integration of AI tools.
