About

Software engineer and co-founder with 0-to-1 SaaS experience who built and owned an end-to-end reporting/analytics dashboard on Next.js App Router + TypeScript, including Postgres schema design, aggregation query optimization, and post-launch performance/monitoring. Has delivered measurable React dashboard performance gains (~35% improvement in time-to-insight) and built durable, idempotent job/state-machine workflows using serverless functions and Postgres.

Key Strengths

• Shipped end-to-end full-stack analytics/reporting dashboard in Next.js App Router + TypeScript
• Performance tuning at scale: Postgres query optimization, indexing, and caching for growing datasets
• Strong React performance optimization (memoization, code splitting, lazy loading, pagination, Suspense/streaming)
• Measured frontend impact: improved 'time to insight' ~35% using profiling and UX metrics
• Designed relational data models with constraints and indexes aligned to access patterns
• Built durable backend workflows with idempotency, retries, and Postgres-backed state machine
• High ownership in 0-to-1 environments (co-founder): roadmap + engineering + pilot user feedback loops
• Refactoring for maintainability under time pressure (decoupled/centralized filter logic post-launch)
• Designs complex multi-user operational systems end-to-end (real-time shelter operations)
• Strong user-research-to-design translation (shadowing staff workflows; redesign based on field insights)
• Creates high-clarity visual hierarchies for fast, glanceable decision-making in high-pressure environments
• Iterative prototyping and validation to test mental models and reduce build risk
• Bridges design and engineering (HTML/CSS/TypeScript/React; thinks in components, states, edge cases)
• Experience leading UI/UX engineering and software development teams
• Translates highly technical AI workflows into intuitive UX (explainable AI/object detection)
