Backend-leaning Full-Stack Engineer | TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js | Payments & Scalable APIs

I’m a backend-leaning full-stack developer with 2+ years of experience shipping production SaaS in a five-engineer startup. I own features end to end, from Prisma/MySQL schemas and Express APIs to Next.js interfaces. 

My strongest work is in payments and performance. I built a production Razorpay integration (OAuth linked accounts, signed webhooks, idempotent transaction handling, settlement reconciliation). I also reduced list API payloads by about 93% and implemented CloudFront-signed media delivery to cut S3 egress costs. I care about observability (Sentry, OpenTelemetry, PostHog) and automated testing. 

Stack: TypeScript, Node.js, Express, Next.js, React, React Native, Prisma, MySQL/PostgreSQL, AWS, GCP. Looking for remote roles with a strong engineering team, especially where payments, on-chain or off-chain money flows, or high-scale APIs are involved.
