Summary
Jason Pereira is a software engineering consultant and UIC MSCS graduate with 8 years of experience building full-stack web and mobile applications, cloud-native services, and developer tools. He has shipped performance-focused features—from cutting API latency in Django REST backends to designing UI frameworks and reusable components used by 50+ engineers—and automated grading tooling that saved 150+ man-hours. Comfortable across front-end (Vue, React), back-end (Django, Node), systems languages (C/C++, Rust advocate), and cloud/DevOps (AWS, Docker, Kafka), he blends UI design sensibility with systems-level thinking. Jason also has hands-on product integration experience, e.g., building a custom Zapier app to connect a platform to 5000+ apps, and a track record of improving developer productivity through tooling and serializers. Based in Chicago, he’s a people-oriented engineer who seeks challenging roles in the US where he can bridge design, performance, and team collaboration.
