carlos@junod:~$ cat about.md
// designer who codes. engineer who ships.
8+ years building production React and Next.js for high-scale platforms — Sam's Club, Silicon Valley Bank, Florida Blue — and currently leading the front-end of a full Next.js 15 rewrite at Trellis Events Solutions.
I work end-to-end: design systems and component libraries (Tailwind, Radix, shadcn/ui) designed in Figma and shipped in code, with an art-direction background behind the craft. On the side I run production RAG pipelines on Supabase + Postgres/pgvector and ship daily with Claude, Cursor and Codex.
[✓] Green card holder — fully authorized for US W-2 employment. Currently based offshore for a short stretch, working remote on US Eastern hours (UTC-5). Async-native, globally distributed teams are home turf.
