Summary
Daniel Brad is a software development engineer with 10 years of experience who transitioned from a decade-long legal career into full-stack web development, now building React and JavaScript-driven applications at SAP Concur. He specializes in React, Redux, GraphQL and Ruby on Rails, with hands-on experience implementing authentication (JWT, Devise/OAuth), server-side pagination, and interactive charts for data-rich user interfaces. His independent projects include Grocer, a Rails-backed purchase-tracking app that parses e-receipts and surfaces analytics, and recipe scrapers/viewers that combine Nokogiri-powered APIs with React or Angular front ends. Comfortable across the stack—Postgres, ActiveRecord, MVC patterns, Bootstrap/semantic UIs, and Git—he brings analytical rigor from his legal background to design robust, auditable systems. Based in West Chester, PA, he pairs production experience at a large enterprise with a track record of shipping practical indie projects that turn messy real-world data into usable insights.
