Cristian Merli is a pragmatic full-stack and mobile software engineer with nine years of professional experience and a longer history in C++ and VB, now focused on React and React Native with TypeScript. He designs and ships cross-platform mobile apps and web frontends while also building and modernizing backend APIs in .NET Core and Laravel, often migrating legacy systems to contemporary stacks. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs MVVM and modern design patterns with pragmatic DevOps and test-driven practices (Jest, RestSharp) in Agile teams. At Applied Systems he delivers insurance-focused mobile and web features; at previous roles he led complete rewrites from Xamarin to React Native and upgraded ASP.NET projects to .NET Core. He runs his own consultancy work, which honed his end-to-end skills from requirements and database design to deployment, and he often balances product ownership with hands-on coding. Based in Alberta, Canada, he brings a blend of long-term language breadth and recent specialization that makes him effective at untangling legacy code while accelerating modern app delivery.
