Profil
Senior full-stack developer and software architect with 15+ years of web development experience, building React and Next. js applications in production since 2023. I design the full path from API to UI: server-side rendering with Next. js, RESTful APIs, data-heavy interfaces and the infrastructure underneath (Docker, CI/CD). On my last platform I acted as technical lead: I owned the architecture, set the code review and testing standards the team followed, and kept 10, 000+ automated tests green in CI. Strong backend background (PHP, Symfony, Laravel, PostgreSQL) means I build frontends that fit the API and data model, not around them. Used to remote work in international teams, mentoring through code review, and documenting decisions so a team can move without me.
SELECTED REACT / NEXT. JS WORK
- Multi-tenant e-commerce storefront and admin (Next. js) — SSR and Server Actions on top of an API-first backend; HttpOnly-cookie authentication with custom token refresh handled in API routes; tenant-aware UI over 21 business modules.
- Trilingual news platform (Next. js 16) — SSR news site for deschide.md in three languages, Elasticsearch-backed search, and a full SEO / GEO / AEO audit that traced ranking problems to client-side rendering.
- Shopify Hydrogen storefront (React) — headless e-commerce storefront built on React / Hydrogen with the Shopify Storefront API, in a containerised environment (PQ Wirt, Hamburg).
- Security on the frontend stack — remediated CVE-2026-44578 (Next. js SSRF, CVSS 8.6) in production: nginx mitigation first, then the code fix, with a written post-mortem.
Experienta
- Feature development on the client's Laravel backend and Vue 3 frontend, using AI coding agents (Claude Code / Codex) under strict human code review.
- Selected after a multi-stage process including a technical assignment: a fleet management MVP in Laravel + Vue 3 built on the client's real data.
