Bloomington, IN4y exp

“Software developer at Indiana University who built a phishing training platform using TypeScript/React, Node, GraphQL, and DynamoDB, including an admin tool to monitor student completion and send automated reminder emails. Also created TechRent, an IU-only electronics rental marketplace concept focused on improving security by restricting access to university students.”

“Unity/C# game developer with experience shipping F2P mobile systems, including loot/reward mechanics backed by probability/rarity/economy design and validated via unit tests, code reviews, and analytics instrumentation. Has implemented server-authoritative multiplayer state sync with matchmaking/RoomID flow, network variables/RPCs, and robust disconnect + reconnection state recovery.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience across Netgear and 3i Infotech, spanning React/TypeScript and Node.js on the frontend/backend as well as Java Spring Boot with MySQL in financial services. Stands out for owning production issues end to end, improving API and query performance, and driving architectural standardization through a centralized frontend API service layer.”

“Engineering/product leader in early-stage environments who has repeatedly driven major pivots and scaling efforts: pandemic-era refactor at NameCoach and multi-community expansion at Nolodex (now ~20 communities). Comfortable going from executive roadmap/stakeholder alignment to hands-on implementation (e.g., webhooks), and has led architecture shifts (monolith-to-distributed, Heroku-to-AWS) while managing outsourced/offshore teams through organizational friction.”

“Full-stack TypeScript engineer who has owned a real-time workflow/communication platform end-to-end in production (Node/TS + React, Postgres/Redis, Kafka, Docker/CI/CD). Demonstrates strong distributed-systems pragmatism—designing for failure with retries, DLQs, idempotency keys, and atomic writes—plus operational practices like structured logging, monitoring, and zero-downtime deployments.”

“JavaScript engineer with open-source library contribution experience, including diagnosing a validation-related bug, shipping a tested fix, and improving documentation with practical examples and edge-case guidance to reduce repeated community questions. Emphasizes profiling-driven performance work, small safe refactors, and proactive ownership in fast-moving, unstructured teams.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and FinTech

USA5y exp

“Software engineer/product-minded builder who owns customer-facing products end-to-end and ships in 1–2 week increments using CI/CD, automated testing, and feature flags. Built a TypeScript/React/Node platform that cut page load times by 40% and scaled to 3x concurrent users, and designed RabbitMQ-based microservices with Prometheus/Grafana monitoring. Also delivered an internal real-time support analytics dashboard that reduced response times by 30%.”

“Frontend engineer who led an end-to-end responsive enterprise banking platform in a regulated environment, emphasizing domain-based architecture, strict TypeScript contracts, and explicit state-machine-like flow modeling. Implemented Redux + React Query state separation, claimed 100% Jest coverage, and improved Jenkins CI/CD to speed deployments ~30% while also resolving major re-render performance bottlenecks.”
