Need help with migrating to nextjs? Looking for a React developer who would be productive from day 1?

Hi. I'm looking for full-time remote roles in a well-funded stable company (I will work in the company's core office hours. 0 issues with timezones. Been working remotely before covid)

Building websites since 2016, working with React since 2018 and have 2 years of production next.js experience

Super comfortable with Next.js, React, Redux (with sagas), tailwind, material ui, styled-components, SEO schemas, AMP, MERN, scalable deployment on GCP/AWS/Vercel, incremental migration and parallel deployment (WordPress blogs, new next.js code and old code working on the same domain)

I value web performance (web vitals) and accessibility and could create high conversion dynamic pages

Are you a small growing team looking for a hands-on leader who can comfortably operate tactically and strategically simultaneously?

I love to straddle IC and management roles. If you need someone who can lead your product software team and still churn out feature after feature with clean, maintainable code I'm your man.

Backend Software Engineer with 2+ years of experience specializing in high-performance, low-latency financial systems. My core expertise is in building the critical payment processing infrastructure that fintech startups need to scale reliably.

At CRED (top Indian fintech unicorn), I was part of the team that built and scaled transaction processing systems, achieving sub-50ms latency. I have deep, hands-on experience with event-driven architectures (Kafka, Outbox Pattern), distributed systems design, and ensuring data consistency in financial ledgers. I have a proven track record of improving system performance by over 40% through strategic caching and resilient design patterns.

I have 3 years of unrestricted work authorization in the US (OPT + STEM OPT Extension) and do not require any visa sponsorship. I am looking for a challenging backend role where I can apply my expertise in payments and distributed systems to solve critical business problems. I can start immediately.
