Context
Givefront is a fintech startup from Silicon Valley. I joined remotely to build its customer-facing product while the company was racing to launch.
What I did
- Built the customer-facing product and shipped the MVP to production in roughly three months.
- Built the BFF / API layer in Node.js with Express and tRPC, so the frontend got end-to-end type-safe endpoints.
- Worked across the Remix frontend and the Python/Django backend.
- Deployed to AWS (ECS, Lambda, SQS) with CI/CD pipelines.
Why it mattered
A tRPC layer between Remix and Django meant a change in the API contract broke the build instead of breaking production. For a small team shipping every day, that kept speed and quality from pulling against each other.
