About Raphael

I help companies design and build scalable backend systems and full-stack applications, with a strong focus on performance, integrations, and data-driven decision making.

I’m a Full Stack Lead (backend-focused) with 6+ years of experience delivering production-ready systems across different industries, including cleantech, machine data platforms, and large-scale loyalty systems. I’ve led backend development, built APIs from scratch, and handled complex third-party integrations in high-impact environments.

What I bring:
•Strong backend expertise (Node.js, TypeScript, Python, Go)
•Scalable API design and system architecture
•Real-time data processing and messaging (RabbitMQ)
•Full-stack delivery with React and modern frameworks
•Experience integrating with external platforms (payments, CRMs, custom APIs)

I’m used to owning systems end-to-end, from architecture and implementation to deployment and continuous improvement. I focus on building solutions that are not only technically solid, but also aligned with business goals.

Typical projects I take on:
•Building or refactoring backend systems and APIs
•Integrating third-party services into existing platforms
•Creating full-stack web applications
•Improving performance, reliability, and scalability of existing systems

If you’re looking for someone who can quickly understand your product, take ownership, and deliver clean, scalable solutions, I can help.
