Work experience

Full Stack Software Engineer · Smudge AppsMar 2022 – Present · 4 yrs 9 mos

Sole developer and architect of the KiwiRail Digital Shunter, delivering a production React + TypeScript SPA end to end with full C-suite ownership and no design handoff. Proactively shipped user-focused enhancements beyond scope (changelog system, workflow optimisations, and URL-based shareable state) and resolved critical production crashes by identifying architectural root causes. Flagged performance/scalability risks ahead of production failures and later implemented API solutions using C# and .NET. Owned client relationships independently, including demos, technical presentations, and urgent stakeholder-driven feature requests.
