About Abhijeet Maharana
Bengaluru, India (IST, UTC+5:30)
I am a full-stack engineer with 5 years of experience building production React and Node.js applications. I work end to end: backend APIs and database schemas, through to fast, accessibility-first user interfaces.
My core stack is React, TypeScript, Next.js and Node.js with Express, on PostgreSQL and Prisma. I use D3.js for data-heavy interfaces and Server-Sent Events or WebSockets when the UI has to stay live. I test with Jest, React Testing Library and Cypress.
I now work with startups as a contractor: 20 to 30 hours a week, 4 hours of daily overlap with US mornings, and direct ownership of the tickets I pick up.
