Summary
Christian Basiga is a Founding Fullstack Engineer with 10 years of hands-on experience building web apps, REST APIs, microservices, and data migration tools across startups and midsize teams. Based in San Jose, he has led architecture and implementation of foundations—tech stacks, coding guidelines, deployments and team workflows—at companies from gaming studios to aviation and finance clients. He’s fluent across JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Python and containerized cloud stacks (AWS, Heroku, Docker, Kubernetes), and has deep practical experience with Spring Boot, NestJS/Express, Flask and modern frontends like React, Angular and Vue. Notable accomplishments include accelerating analytics queries from minutes to microseconds for aviation tools, building robust payment microservices to meet PCI needs, and automating financial reporting and Twitch integrations for game releases. He thrives on diving into existing ecosystems to refactor or deprecate legacy pieces while shipping new features, and often combines backend orchestration with geospatial or data-heavy UIs. Ambitious and pragmatic, he balances hands-on coding with mentoring and operational ownership as a founding engineer.
