    Cerasos sales platform

    Pharmacy sales platform that runs on WhatsApp. Customers message, the Uazapi integration answers and creates the order, and Getnet handles payment from tokenization through the webhook that confirms it. An admin dashboard sits on top for order tracking, sales figures, and customer ratings.

    AR3 Capital financial platform

    Internal financial services pulled into one client. Database lookups and reporting were the slow part, so those came first. The UI library shipped through Storybook so every view drew from the same components.

Experience

  1. Cerasos

    Fullstack Engineer

    Dec 2025 - Present

    • Built a pharmacy sales platform on top of WhatsApp through Uazapi, so a customer message turns into a real order without anyone typing it in.
    • Wrote the payment engine in Next.js and TypeScript against the Getnet API: tokenization, a custom checkout, and webhook listeners that keep order status in sync.
    • Built the admin dashboard for orders, sales figures, and customer ratings, which replaced the spreadsheets the pharmacy was using.
    • Own the infrastructure too, including hosting, database sync, API orchestration, and the test suite that keeps reliability at 99.9%.

    • TypeScript
    • Getnet

  2. Ziion Tech

    Frontend Engineer

    Feb 2025 - Present

    • Built a property showcase app in Next.js and Tailwind CSS, with Core Web Vitals as the thing we optimized against rather than a report we read afterwards.
    • Put together the internal UI component library, which cut roughly 20% off the time it takes to ship a new feature.
    • Built the admin dashboard for employee management and the internal data views that go with it.
    • Set up the Jest workflows so unit tests run without anyone remembering to run them.

    Frontend Engineer

    Jun 2024 - Nov 2024

    • Built the scheduling and calendar views in Next.js and Shadcn UI.
    • Built the data dashboards with Redux and Framer Motion, working with the backend team to pin down the API contracts first.
    • Moved the frontend test suite into the CI/CD pipeline, which took manual verification out of the release path.
    • Reviewed code and wrote the documentation that kept the architecture decisions from getting lost.

    Mobile Developer

    • Designed the mobile design system, which cut the layout work on every screen after it.

What I do

  • Frontend engineering

    React and Next.js applications built to stay fast as they grow. Core Web Vitals and accessibility get measured, not assumed.

  • Payments and fintech

    Stripe and Getnet integrations from sandbox through production, including tokenization, webhooks, and PCI-compliant checkout.

  • Design systems and architecture

    Component libraries in Storybook, with Clean Architecture and DDD applied where the domain is complex enough to need them.

How I work
“Clean Architecture and DDD are not academic exercises. They are what lets a team keep shipping without the codebase turning against them. Performance and accessibility follow from structure. You do not bolt them on at the end.”
