## Experience

### Fullstack Engineer · [Zunta](https://zunta.com)

Lakewood, NJ, USA (remote) · Full-time · Jan 2026 – Present

*A healthcare fintech platform that automates and validates private-pay billing for skilled nursing facilities.*

*Continued from Proghit (Moved with my manager)*

I joined Zunta in January 2026, moving over from Proghit together with my manager. Zunta automates and validates private-pay billing for skilled nursing facilities, a domain where accuracy, compliance and clear visibility into every step matter.

I work on Payments V2, which spans the frontend and the backend systems behind it. The work is still in progress.

### Full-stack Developer (React Native) · [Blai](https://blaiapp.io)

Cambridge, MA, USA (remote) · Part-time · Sep 2025 – May 2026 · company sunset

*An AI crypto advisor app that analyses the markets around the clock and turns them into clear, tailored insights and trades.*

*Continued from FastLane (Moved with the same team)*

In September 2025 the team I had been working with at FastLane moved over to Blai, and I moved with them. Blai is an AI crypto advisor: an app that watches the markets around the clock and gives each user clear, tailored insights for smarter trades.

Most of my time went into the backend. I built and maintained the mobile APIs, which are integrated with [ElizaOS](https://elizaos.ai), and ran the continuous deployment pipelines and uptime monitoring that kept the agentic APIs reliable. I also worked with the mobile team on the React Native app, integrating features and improving performance.

Blai was an AI-first team, and I learned a lot there about backend systems, AI agent orchestration and mobile development. The company sunset in May 2026.

### Product Engineer (Frontend Lead) · [Lightwork AI](https://www.lightwork.co)

London, UK (remote) · Part-time, then full-time from Dec 2024 · Sep 2024 – Jul 2025

*Makers of Felicity, an AI assistant that handles communication, maintenance, compliance, payments and scheduling for property teams.*

Lightwork AI builds Felicity, an AI assistant for property teams that takes care of customer communication, maintenance, compliance, payments and scheduling. I joined in September 2024 as a part-time product engineer leading the frontend, and went full-time that December.

I led frontend development in React and worked closely with design, backend and product so that features held together end to end. Where integration or consistent data flow needed it, I picked up backend tasks too, and I was an active reviewer on the team.

By the time I left in July 2025 I had built and maintained several of the platform's core modules, including the Knowledge Base, Compliance, Lettings & Viewings and the Calendar.

### Sr. Fullstack Engineer (Frontend Lead) · [Proghit](https://www.proghit.com)

New York, NY, USA (remote) · Freelance · Sep 2024 – Jan 2026

*A development firm building client products across fintech, ad-tech, ed-tech and developer tools.*

Proghit is a development firm that takes on client work across fintech, ad-tech, ed-tech and developer tools. I joined as a freelancer in September 2024 and led the frontend on several of those projects, mostly in React and TypeScript, working closely with the backend and design teams.

For Simple, a one-click payment platform similar to Stripe Link, I built the frontend and a JavaScript SDK. For Gizber I improved the Ad Manager, which runs donation-driven ad campaigns, in both the React web app and the iOS tablet app. I was the lead frontend engineer on Kriah, an ed-tech platform for Jewish children built around accessibility and engagement. I also built two developer tools: a web-search plugin for LobeChat, and ShellAI, a terminal AI chat app that works with models from several providers and helps with command-line tasks and questions.

In January 2026 my manager and I moved over to Zunta together.

Houston, TX, USA (remote) · Contract · Jul 2024 – Feb 2025

*A community-first marketplace that brings products from many online stores into one place with a single checkout.*

MixR is a community-first marketplace that connects online stores so shoppers can browse them in one place and check out once. I joined on a contract in July 2024 to look after the frontend.

I oversaw frontend development and its integration with the backend. The biggest piece of work was moving the entire codebase to Next.js for better performance.

### Lead Frontend Engineer · [FastLane](https://fastlane.run)

Boston, MA, USA (remote) · Part-time · Jun 2024 – Sep 2025

*A fully on-chain, endlessly expanding game on the Oasis Network where every checkpoint is a claimable NFT.*

FastLane is a fully on-chain game on the Oasis Network, a bit like Subway Surfers with NFT mechanics. Players race down an endlessly expanding road full of hidden obstacles, each checkpoint is a claimable NFT, and both gameplay and checkpoint ownership earn ETH. I joined part-time in June 2024 as the lead frontend engineer.

I built and maintained the site and the game mechanics, and looked after server operations and continuous deployment so that updates went out smoothly.

In September 2025 the team and I moved over to Blai together.
