Senior🎓
Top SchoolKevin Henderson is a Senior Software Engineer with over two decades of experience building web and mobile applications and eleven years in senior roles, currently focused on React and modern Next.js stacks. He has led architecture and implementation of large-scale products—from bootstrapping ZenGRC Pro with NextJS, Postgres and Postgraphile to production-grade PWAs like the open-source React Storefront where he contributed UI enhancements and accessibility features. Comfortable as the principal developer on cross-functional teams, Kevin combines hands-on coding, PR review, and UX-driven design to improve products end-to-end, including theme and dark-mode redesigns when design resources are limited. He is experienced in evolving legacy ExtJS systems into maintainable architectures and has a track record of choosing pragmatic platform decisions (e.g., using Next “pages” router for stability) to keep projects moving. A long-time remote collaborator based in Concord, NC, he blends deep frontend craftsmanship with pragmatic backend choices and a habit of documenting and automating for future maintainability. Outside of work he maintains a personal site with a portfolio of his work, signaling an engineer who values clarity and shareable knowledge.
