Work Experience

Full Stack Developer at Aline Digital Ltd
January 1, 2019 - July 1, 2025
I worked as a full stack developer in a small, highly productive remote team. I contributed to a wide range of web applications primarily across the front end, running in cloud infrastructure. Key projects included an AI Chatbot Platform, a cloud-based chatbot system with a React front end and a Go microservice back end, and a Customer Management System integrating with external APIs. I delivered responsive websites and CMS features from detailed designs, ensured accessibility and maintainability, and implemented file uploads to AWS S3 with public/private access controls. I reduced CMS site load times by around 40% through React optimization, caching, and omitting unnecessary API calls. I built features for legacy systems and delivered clean, well-documented code, with a focus on performance and user experience. I regularly collaborated with product and design teams and supported ongoing maintenance and feature improvements.
