Summary
Dusty Mccord is a frontend engineer based in Portland, Oregon with nine years of creative-technical experience and over five years specializing in React and TypeScript. He builds performant, accessible UIs in agile teams, partnering closely with UX leads to shepherd apps through every stage of their lifecycle while maintaining legacy systems and automated testing standards. His background in motion design and video production (clients include Nike, Amazon, and Cartoon Network) gives him a strong sense for visual storytelling and production-grade asset workflows, and he has automated media pipelines with Python to save time and reduce errors. Equally comfortable implementing custom Shopify storefronts and data-driven React dashboards, Dusty blends product-focused engineering with practical client training and handoffs. Outside of code he’s a filmmaker and “nerdy dad” who’s always hunting for tools that boost creativity and velocity.
