Where I’ve Worked

Full Stack Developer @ Pesto Tech

June 2023 - Present

  • Took temporary leadership during a critical project phase, coordinating a 7-member team through Agile sprints and delivering modules on time, preventing project failure and ensuring client retention.
  • Modernized legacy architectures for social media and enterprise tools using React (TypeScript), Node.js, Tailwind, and Shadcn—establishing coding standards, reusable components, and lazy-loaded modules that reduced rendering time by 70%.
  • Collaborated closely with UI/UX designers, backend teams, and clients, contributing to system design, architecture decisions, and code reviews.
  • Developed a Real-Time Whiteboard Application with drawing, erasing, undo/redo, real-time collaboration (Socket.IO), and optimized state management for multi-user performance.
