Engineering Manager & Full-Stack Architect · React · Node.js · AWS
I’m a Staff-level Software Engineer and Engineering Manager with 10+ years of experience building and leading high-performing teams across SaaS, integrations, and cloud platforms. I specialize in React, Node.js, AWS, and full-stack architecture, and have led large-scale migrations, AI initiatives, and developer enablement programs.
At Help Scout, I lead modernization of our settings architecture and integrations with Stripe, HubSpot, and Mailchimp. Previously, I managed teams at 2U (EdTech) and Trove (Recommerce), focusing on platform scalability and developer growth.
I can help you:
Architect or modernize React/Node applications for scalability and performance
Design APIs, third-party integrations, or serverless systems on AWS
Improve engineering effectiveness, delivery flow, and team processes
Prepare for senior technical interviews or engineering manager roles
All sessions are structured, paid consultations held exclusively on Codementor — ideal for founders, tech leads, and developers seeking senior-level technical guidance.
