- AI-Augmented Engineering: Use Claude Code as a primary tool - directing it to generate, refactor, and validate code while applying your judgment to review output and make architectural decisions.
- Full-Stack Development: Build across backend (Javascript, Python, NestJS/Node.js), frontend (React + TypeScript), and data layers (TypeORM + Microsoft SQL Server).
- API & Integration: Design and maintain RESTful APIs with OpenAPI/Swagger documentation. Manage clean contracts between new and legacy modules during transition.
- Cloud & DevOps: Deploy and manage solutions on AWS, Azure, or GCP. Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines, IaC, and containerised deployments (Docker, Kubernetes).
