I’m a U.S.-based principal engineer with 10+ years of experience, specializing in JavaScript, React, and Next.js. I help product teams ship fast, modernize legacy frontends, and solve tough architectural problems without adding tech debt. I’m a strong written communicator — ideal for async, remote-first teams.
Highlights
- Refactored complex React apps for performance and maintainability
- Migrated production apps to Next.js for improved SSR and data handling
- Boosted Core Web Vitals and Lighthouse scores
I’m currently available for remote, part-time or short-term contract work. If your team could use a senior partner to move faster and cleaner, let’s talk.
I use a Mac app called Lunar (https://lunar.fyi) to control the brightness/contrast of my external monitor. The app uses your location to automatically brighten or dim your monitor depending on the time of day. For me, it’s well worth the money. The developer also promptly replied to a question sent via email and solved my problem.
After a few months if the funds aren't claimed we will reallocate them to a subscriber's other direct dependencies. For the time being, if you accepting funds via GitHub Sponsors, Open Collective, etc. we will do our best to get money to you.
Howdy HN, I'm part of a small team in Seattle, WA that worked over the last 2 weeks to put together a contact tracing app that is focused on user privacy. The app works by recording your location history for a 3 week period and then comparing it against the location history of reported COVID-19 infections. All of the comparisons happen on your phone, so your location history never leaves your device unless you report an infection.
Our app is ready to launch in the Google and Apple app stores, but they have changed their requirements for anything COVID related, which means we have to partner with a recognized institution. We are working as quickly as possible to find a partner. If anyone has a promising contact that might be able to help, please let me know!
+1 for Sqitch. If you include a full deploy -> verify -> revert -> deploy flow in your automated testing suite you can pretty safely introduce changes that can be rolled back without issue. This has served my team well on several complicated databases over the past two years.
I started writing a budgeting app very similar to YNAB. Had basic integration with the Plaid API, Next.js (React) with PostgREST and Postgres, Auth0, Bootstrap among some other things.
Edit: feel free to reach out via email in my profile.
Interesting. As someone who did something similar, not even open sourced it, I’d say it’s easy to underestimate how much goes into a simple looking budget app. I reckon it’s a year full time work to make a decent one.
Using it for several low to high traffic web apps. Using GKE, Storage, managed Postgres, Redis, Global Load Balancers, custom VPC networking with VPN to AWS and more. All managed via Terraform. Very capable and production ready in my experience.
