About

I’m Gourav Vaidya, a Senior Mobile Full-Stack Engineer based in Tallinn, Estonia. I design and ship secure, scalable software for fintech, Web3, and IoT, blending native mobile apps with robust backend services. I enjoy turning complex requirements into maintainable architectures and helping teams deliver value quickly while maintaining quality.

Over the past decade, I’ve led teams from 1 to 8 engineers, steered platform migrations serving millions of users, and built crypto/fiat payments, wallets, and blockchain integrations. My sweet spot is delivering end-to-end solutions—from Flutter and React Native mobile clients to Node.js backends, payment integrations, and Web3 components—while prioritizing security, performance, and a great developer experience.
