  • 10+ years building production web apps, the last 4+ as a Senior Software Engineer at SchooLinks (ed-tech SaaS used by 1,000+ school districts and 6M+ students in the US).
  • Designed and built the most complex shared components in the SchooLinks codebase (rich text editor on draft.js, drag-and-drop uploader, virtualized data table, reusable filters and bulk-action drawer) reused across nearly every product module.
  • Built the team's Storybook common components library along with its docs, style guides, and conventions.
  • Drove the JavaScript-to-TypeScript migration and led the React 16 to 18 upgrade across the codebase.
  • At OpenNode, migrated a legacy AngularJS app (Waldur HomePort) to React/Redux + TypeScript and designed the new UI design system around it.
  • Built 2 React/Redux data-analytics apps with ECharts on Upwork, shipped to production and used by many client customers.
  • Led front-end teams on citizen-facing government projects at Tbilisi City Hall (Tbilisi Taxi, Build, EV Charging now serving 300+ free chargers), promoted from intern to senior over 4+ years.
  • Improved the front-end interview rubric and run technical interviews and live coding sessions, helping hire several strong engineers.
  • Integrated AI/LLM tooling (Claude Code) into daily engineering to brainstorm, break down complex tasks, and accelerate refactors and migrations.
