Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Zilkie is an experienced full-stack software developer and independent contractor with eight years focused on modern Jamstack and headless e-commerce implementations, and a deeper background in embedded Linux and real-time systems. He specializes in React, Gatsby and Next.js with headless CMS and Shopify integrations, and has delivered production sites for clients like Whole30 while also leveraging serverless Cloudflare Workers and GraphQL. Earlier work as a lead embedded developer gave him low-level C/C++, kernel/module and FPGA/I2C expertise, making him comfortable across the stack from hardware-near drivers to polished front-ends. Adam blends disciplined engineering practices (TDD/BDD, ISO-style process experience) with practical product delivery on agile teams. Based in Chatham, Ontario, he pairs academic rigor from an M.Sc. in Computer Engineering with hands-on mentoring and team leadership. Notably, his career bridges broadcast-grade streaming protocols and modern web architectures, giving him a rare cross-domain perspective.
