Next.js Developer | SaaS MVP & Headless CMS | React, Node.js, Strapi

Building a SaaS MVP or growing an existing product?
 Or building a content-driven website that's difficult to maintain because every update depends on a developer? Every delay costs you time, momentum, and revenue. I help SaaS founders and growing businesses build, improve, and scale modern web applications—from launching MVPs to evolving existing products. When content management is essential, I implement headless CMS solutions that empower non-technical teams to manage content independently. My approach combines deep expertise in modern frontend development (Next.js & React.js), backend engineering (Node.js, Express.js, PostgreSQL), UI/UX design, and headless CMS architecture (Sanity & Strapi) to build production-ready applications that perform well, are easy to maintain, and support your business as it grows. Whether it's building or integrating APIs, implementing authentication and payments, or giving your team complete control over content without touching code, I focus on delivering solutions that create long-term value—not technical debt. ✦ Rising Talent on Upwork — awarded to the top emerging freelancers on the platform ✦ 100% Job Success Score across every client and every project ✦ 10 projects shipped across SaaS, headless CMS, AI integrations, and e-commerce — on time and on scope ✦ Zero disappointed clients. That is not luck. That is how I work. I don't just build features; I think about the product as a whole. From architecture and user experience to maintainability and future growth, I aim to make technical decisions that continue paying off long after launch. I can help you: ✓ Launch SaaS MVPs and web applications with Next.js, secure authentication, payments, REST APIs, AI integrations, and everything needed to go live with confidence. ✓ Build scalable backend services with Node.js, Express.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Supabase—designed for clean data, reliable APIs, and long-term maintainability. ✓ Implement headless CMS solutions that give your team complete control over content—without depending on developers for everyday updates using Strapi, Sanity, and headless WordPress. ✓ Build content-rich websites and documentation using MDX, React, and headless CMS solutions that are easy to scale and maintain. ✓ Craft high-converting landing pages & marketing sites with React.js, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS, optimized for Core Web Vitals and accessibility. Built around one goal: turning visitors into customers. ✓ Translate Figma designs into production-ready products and modernize legacy web apps. Pixel-perfect, fully responsive TypeScript + React + Tailwind builds, structured for long-term scalability rather than short-term convenience. ✓ Build e-commerce storefronts with Next.js, Stripe, or Paystack, dynamic product pages, and SEO foundations built to drive organic traffic and convert browsers into buyers. 🤝 My process: Most developers go quiet after you hire them. I do the opposite. 1. Kickoff call. We align on your product, your users, and what success actually looks like. 2. Architecture & planning. I map out the full structure and hand you a clear timeline before a single line of code is written. 3. Build & integrate. Figma designs become clean production components. APIs and payment flows are built, connected, and tested. 4. Deploy & refine. Everything ships and gets refined until performance is exactly where it needs to be. Clear communication is a priority for me. You'll always know what's been completed, what's in progress, and what's coming next. Throughout the entire process, you get regular Loom video updates, screenshots, and live working builds so you can test features as they come together. You always know where things stand. No fluff, no surprises. 🛠 Technologies I Work With: → Frontend: Next.js, React, TypeScript, JavaScript, Astro → Styling: Tailwind CSS, Shadcn/UI, Framer Motion, GSAP → Backend: Node.js, Express.js → Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Supabase → Headless CMS: Strapi, Sanity, Headless WordPress, Payload CMS → APIs & Integrations: REST APIs, Prisma, Cloudinary → Authentication & Payments: Clerk, NextAuth, Supabase Auth, Stripe, Paystack → AI: OpenAI API, Claude → Deployment: Vercel, AWS, Netlify 🏆 What a recent client said: "Working with Divine was one of the best decisions we made for our business.
