Location: London, UK Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Typescript, React Native, React, AWS, Node.js. Some Swift/Kotlin/Java (would like to do more, especially Swift). Have written some Lua. I like writing automation scripts in Bash. Heavy user of lots of Terminal-based tools, such as Neovim, Tmux, etc (see my dotfiles: https://github.com/tomoakley/dotfiles)

I am a Lead Engineer at a small tech company in London called TotallyMoney, where I have been for the past 7 years, specialising in React Native (and some work on the web). During my time there the iOS/Android app has become the main focus for the company (however we maintain a web app too). I have been a large part of driving the app forward, both technically and in terms of the product. I have been a software engineer for 10 years and have a degree in Computer Science.

Some highlights of things I have worked on include new CI pipelines (automated testing, creating new app targets for manual testing and more), universal/app links, Swift and Java native/turbo/nitro modules, automated “real device” testing using AWS device farm and Maestro, spinning up our own CodePush server on AWS, and many features written in TypeScript. The app is not written with the Expo framework so I have had a lot of opportunities to understand React Native more - but open to working on an Expo app.

I want to remain focussing on React Native although I’d love the opportunity to write more Swift/Java, and also open to working on the web some of the time.

A hybrid approach to in-office/home works well for me (ideally 2 days in-office) but a full-remote job would be ok for the right role/company. Not open to relocation but some travel would be ok.

Thanks for reading!

Location: Cali, Colombia (Remote) Remote: Yes Tech: Python, Node.js, Java, PHP | FastAPI, Distributed Systems, AI, Backend Architect. Email: me@hendrixroa.dev Profile: https://linkedin.com/in/hendrix-roa

Staff Engineer with 11 years exp. Scaled systems to 11M concurrent users.

I don’t just execute tasks also I solve business problems. My philosophy is simple I am a relentless path-clearer. If there is a technical or operational blocker, I resolve it. Period.

Business Momentum: I know when to ship at breakneck speed and when to architect for 100x scale.

Extreme Ownership: I am not a ticket-taker. I bring real passion and a mission-first mindset to 0-1 ventures.

Polyglot: I use the best tool for the mission to build real moats, not just code.

Looking for a partnership with a Venture Studio or High-Growth Startup. If you need a builder who owns the problem, let’s talk.

I’m not sure your boss will agree.

I've worked as a SWE intern at Nector, building transactional voice agents and multi tenant backends, at Qlink building backend systems and handling deployments to AWS.

The best thing I've ever done is scale a real time leaderboard to 150,000 concurrent SSE connections on a single Linux machine, and I'm trying to improve on that still - https://github.com/pranshu-raj-211/leaderboard

Looking for internships or early full time roles, preferably with backend engineering oriented scope.

I write a bit on my blog, which I post here sometimes- https://blog.pranshu-raj.in
