I’m Raphael Aviz, a full-stack software engineer focused on React and TypeScript, with strong end-to-end ownership across backend services (Node.js and Java/Spring Boot), CI/CD, and production support. Over the last two years, I’ve delivered complex, configurable B2B SaaS features from UI implementation through backend integration to deployment—often translating regulatory and client-specific requirements into robust architectures rather than simple CRUD flows.
