Full Stack JavaScript Engineer
React and Node.js product engineering across education, IoT and workforce platforms — my core track record.
Frontend / React Engineer
Interface-focused roles building real-time dashboards, teacher workspaces and operational tooling in React and TypeScript.
Backend / Node.js Engineer
Service-oriented roles: APIs, microservices, queues, telemetry pipelines and cloud delivery on AWS.

Data Center Technician
A deliberate move toward infrastructure. My IoT work meant monitoring power and device health across 100+ buildings; I work comfortably with Linux, networking fundamentals, AWS hardware-adjacent services and on-call style diagnostics — and I'm ready to apply that hands-on at the facility level.
