Senior Full Stack Engineer

Nick Di Felice

I build software that stays useful as it grows.

Senior full stack engineer across Laravel, Vue, Node, Java, and cloud delivery — strongest on product systems where architecture and UX both matter.

10+ years engineering experience Tech lead / architecture experience Frontend + backend + data + delivery
Profile

I like clear systems and practical delivery — strongest when a team needs someone who can move across the stack without losing the product thread.

  • Comfortable in ambiguity. Happy shaping a concept into a sensible technical path.
  • Lead and build. Architecture decisions, mentoring, and shipping with other engineers.

Approach

How I work

Understand the workflow, design carefully, keep the build practical.

Product-minded

Start from user outcomes and tradeoffs — not just tickets.

Backend-solid

Data, permissions, and service design are where reliability lives.

Practically delivered

Maintainable without overengineering — clear enough to inherit.
