I’m a Nextside partner and an engineer with 10+ years of experience. I’ve worked with geoprocessing and GIS, with mobile — from native Android to React Native — and with distributed backends: microservices in Node.js/NestJS and Java/Spring Boot, payments, distributed locks, and hexagonal architecture running on Kubernetes on AWS.
