Full Stack Developer at Handled (Y-Combinator)
June 1, 2026 - Present
Owned features end to end from PostgreSQL schema design through React and TypeScript interfaces, shipping automation that removed manual 10 hours/week returns processing from daily operations. Built event-driven refund automation on background job queues with idempotent processing and approval gating, moving real money with zero incorrect payouts in production. Eliminated duplicate tracking records under concurrent load via a partial unique index and race-safe insert, resolving a data-integrity bug affecting 28% of shipments. Integrated third-party REST APIs into a unified workflow with webhook handling and retry logic, working directly with the founder and head of engineering to diagnose and resolve production defects.
Full Stack Developer at Community Lands (NYC - Remote - Contract)
February 1, 2026 - June 1, 2026
Built an internal admin dashboard using React and TypeScript, integrating APIs and role-based access control (RBAC) to manage users, listings, and transaction data and Stripe subscriptions. Integrated the OpenAI API into a Django CSV bulk import flow to auto-generate listing descriptions and normalize address fields, reducing admin cleanup time per batch by 70%. Developed reusable React components and managed state with Redux Toolkit (slices and thunks), leveraging memoization to reduce re-renders and improving performance in data-heavy views, reducing load time from 4.3s to 1.2s.
