Summary
John Hamlin is a Senior Frontend Engineer based in Raleigh who builds full‑stack web apps with a focus on TypeScript, React (including React 19 and Next.js), GraphQL and robust CI/CD on Google Cloud. He has driven large-scale onboarding platform work at Deutsche Bank—leading modern functional React adoption, migrating microservices to GCP, and cutting page loads and build times dramatically through tooling and optimization. Comfortable across frontend, backend BFFs and cloud infrastructure, he also mentors junior engineers and ruthlessly eliminates tech debt, having upgraded dozens of npm packages and modernized Node across teams. A pragmatic adopter of AI dev tools like GitHub Copilot to accelerate delivery, he pairs engineering rigor (90%+ test coverage) with a journalist’s clarity from a UNC journalism background. Off the clock he’s a bar trivia champion, hot‑sauce daredevil and kombucha brewer—details that hint at a taste for experimentation and friendly competition.
