Frontend-strong Full Stack Developer
React · Next.js · TypeScript · Node.js · NestJS
3+ years building production-grade SaaS platforms, AI-powered tools, and enterprise UIs. I lead on the frontend — React, Next.js App Router, TypeScript, design systems — and go deep on the backend when the problem calls for it. Based in Montreal. Open to remote roles.
What I'm good at:
- Frontend architecture: component libraries, white-label design systems, state management at scale
- Performance: bundle optimization, lazy loading, raw SQL over ORM where it counts
- Full stack delivery: REST/GraphQL APIs, PostgreSQL, AWS, Docker, CI/CD
- AI integration: LLM-powered chatbots, RAG pipelines, automated report generation
| Result | What I did |
|---|---|
 |
Replaced Sequelize ORM with tuned raw SQL on a hot endpoint at Lua |
 |
Redesigned media architecture with versioning, lifecycle rules, and Intelligent Tiering |
 |
Led UI architecture refactor enabling enterprise white-labeling at Ideamappers — owned both the component library and theming layer |
 |
Built LLM-powered property insights chatbot and automated report generation at Habily |
 |
Shipped across Lua's influencer marketing platform including Quick Payments and advanced creator search |
 |
Webpack to SWC, significant build time improvement, bundle size reduction via lazy imports |
