a little more about me
Hi, I’m Rutu — a full-stack engineer.
Results-driven software engineer with 4+ years of experience in full-stack development, specializing in JavaScript (Node.js & React), TypeScript, GraphQL, and databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Firebase. I build responsive web apps with Next.js and work across cloud platforms including GCP and AWS — adapting quickly to new stacks and shipping scalable solutions.
Over the past few years I’ve grown from an associate engineer into someone who owns features end to end — architecting commerce and CMS-driven platforms, extending headless systems like Medusa and Payload, and building event-driven cloud services. I care about clean, maintainable code, thoughtful collaboration with cross-functional teams, and shipping products that feel effortless to use.
