CAPABILITIES

What I Do

1.1

FULL-STACK ENGINEERING

End-to-end product delivery — schema to pixel. Django and FastAPI backends wired into React and Next.js frontends that ship.

  • Django
  • FastAPI
  • Next.js
  • React
1.2

API & SYSTEMS DESIGN

Data models built for evolution, not demolition. Metadata-driven taxonomies, self-referential relations, validation that survives schema change.

  • PostgreSQL
  • Redis
  • REST
  • SQLModel
1.3

PRODUCT INTERFACES

Interfaces with taste and intent. Cross-platform builds with React Native and Expo, design systems in Tailwind, motion where it earns its keep.

  • TypeScript
  • React Native
  • Expo
  • TailwindCSS
1.4

SHIP & MAINTAIN

Software that survives contact with production. Auth flows, payment rails, code review discipline, and long-term maintainability.

  • JWT
  • Payments
  • CI/CD
  • Code Review
