WHAT SHOULD YOU HAVE?

  • Experience: 5+ years of professional full-stack development experience handling complex, consumer-facing production applications.
  • Technical Expertise: Advanced, deep proficiency in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and modern backend architectures (MVC, Microservices, Event-driven).
