Experience

Freelance Software Engineer

03/2023 – 09/2024
Remote · enterprise and retail clients
Stack: NestJS, Next.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, React, Docker, AWS
  • ▸ Built and shipped full-stack web applications for enterprise and retail clients, adapting to each client’s stack.
  • ▸ Redesigned the PostgreSQL schema and query paths on a NestJS/Next.js CRM; p95 API latency fell from 2.5 s to under 1 s.
  • ▸ Contributed to an AWS-hosted microservices e-commerce platform for a large-scale retailer; improved release reliability through CI/CD.
  • ▸ Split synchronous dashboard endpoints into RabbitMQ/Redis workers on a student-data product, reducing request-path blocking.
Client references available on request.

Web Developer — IdeaPipe

02/2021 – 02/2023
6-person Agile product team
Stack: Node.js, Express, MongoDB, React, Redux
  • ▸ Worked with senior engineers on slow MongoDB paths; compound indexes reduced typical API response from ~500 ms to ~400 ms on the affected routes.
  • ▸ Cut redundant lookups and added query projections on core application routes.
  • ▸ Introduced Redux for shared UI state and reduced reported frontend bugs.
