I’m Vincent Yapranz, a full stack software engineer with 7+ years of experience building and shipping production-ready web applications in dynamic, client-facing environments. I specialize in TypeScript/JavaScript across the stack, working from NestJS/Node.js on the backend to React/Next.js on the frontend, with a strong focus on end-to-end delivery, quality, and measurable cost/efficiency improvements. I enjoy owning features from scoping and architecture through implementation, iteration, and iteration-driven delivery. I’m also comfortable integrating modern AI tooling into engineering workflows (including Claude Code and MCP integrations like Notion, Figma, and Jira) to improve planning, debugging, and refactoring, and I partner closely with clients and product teams to deliver fast, accurate outcomes that meet real business needs.
