About
I’m Rasheed Idris, a senior full-stack engineer with 5+ years of hands-on experience building production-ready web applications, APIs, and cross-platform solutions. I specialize in React and Next.js on the frontend, TypeScript/JavaScript across the stack, and Python (Django/Flask) for backend services, with a strong focus on performance, maintainability, and reliable integrations.
I’ve led front-end development across large portions of projects, worked on payment and transaction workflows, and integrated third-party services such as payment providers, SMS services, and REST APIs. I enjoy troubleshooting production issues, designing responsive user interfaces, and delivering features from requirements through deployment—often collaborating closely with backend developers, designers, products stakeholders, and clients.
