Hi, I’m Carl! I am a results-driven Full Stack Web Developer and Technical Team Lead with over 4 years of hands-on experience building, optimizing, and scaling web applications. I specialize in Python (Django & Django Ninja) on the backend and Vue.js and React on the frontend.
Beyond writing high-quality production code, I have a proven track record of technical leadership. I currently manage a team of 4 engineers, overseeing the delivery of complex HR and payroll product features while balancing hands-on development, mentoring, and code reviews.
If you are looking for a developer who can work independently, write clean and scalable code, optimize database performance, or lead a development team to hit sprint deadlines, I can jump right in and bring immediate value to your project.
What I bring to your team:
• Full-Stack Technical Expertise: I build scalable RESTful APIs from scratch using Django/Django Ninja and craft dynamic, responsive frontends using Vue.js (Vuex) and React (JSX/TSX).
• Performance Optimization: I have a strong track record of diagnosing bottlenecks. I routinely optimize endpoints—reducing database query counts to under 20 and slashing response times by roughly 80% (under 100ms).
• Automation & DevOps: Experienced in eliminating manual tech workflows using Celery and Redis, containerizing apps with Docker/Nginx, and utilizing AWS S3.
• Leadership & Reliability: Comfortable in high-tempo environments, managing stakeholders, and coordinating sprint deliverables to keep projects on track.
Skills:
• Backend: Python, Django, Django Ninja, RESTful API Design, Celery, Redis
• Frontend: Vue.js, Vuex, React (JSX/TSX), Axios Interceptors, JavaScript/TypeScript
• Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB
• DevOps & Infrastructure: Docker, Nginx, AWS S3, Kubernetes
• Management & Tools: Code Reviews, Sprint Coordination, Project Prioritization, MJML
