Mykyta K.
Full Stack Engineer | React, Node.js, TypeScript | Java, Spring
Full-stack engineer with 6+ years of commercial experience building production web applications. My primary stack is JavaScript / TypeScript with React on the frontend and Node.js / Express on the backend, backed by a solid Java / Spring background for everything that needs heavier server-side logic. I work end-to-end on web products: business logic, REST and WebSocket APIs, database design, frontend implementation, third-party integrations, testing, and deployment. I'm equally comfortable joining an existing codebase and shipping features inside it, or starting a new project from a blank repo. What I do best: 🔹 Full-stack web apps — React / Redux / TypeScript on the frontend, Node.js / Express on the backend, PostgreSQL or MongoDB for data. Clean architecture, REST APIs, real-time features over WebSocket when needed. 🔹 Java / Spring backend — REST APIs, business logic, data access, JUnit + Mockito test coverage. I spent 3+ years on enterprise Java work (Guidewire P&C insurance platform: PolicyCenter, BillingCenter), which taught me how to keep large codebases maintainable and how to ship inside Agile/Scrum teams across multiple parallel projects. 🔹 Complex API integrations & automation — third-party APIs, custom n8n nodes and workflows, Retool internal tools, Google Apps Script. On my most recent project I built a full-stack platform with deep integrations into financial APIs (DeFi protocols via ethers.js, the Bybit exchange, MetaMask), which gave me a lot of exposure to async-heavy systems, real-time data, and reliability work — useful skills that transfer to plenty of non-crypto domains too. What I bring to a project: ✅ End-to-end ownership — from requirements to deployment. ✅ Ability to take over a broken or half-migrated codebase and ship it back to a working state. ✅ Clean, tested, documented code. Unit tests and code review are part of "done," not extras. ✅ Strong API and integration skills (REST, WebSocket, third-party SDKs). ✅ Agile/Scrum communication style — clear updates, realistic estimates, no surprises.

If you have a clear spec, a half-finished project, or just an idea you want to scope out — send me a message with a few details and I'll come back with concrete next steps.
