Senior🎓
Top SchoolKitan García is a Full Stack Engineer with nine years of experience building scalable web and blockchain applications from San Francisco. He blends modern front-end frameworks (React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind) with backend services and smart contracts (Rust/Anchor on Solana, Node/Flask, Postgres/DynamoDB), shipping production apps like an education dApp that mints NFTs and a carbon intensity visualizer handling 28,000+ datapoints. Kitan has driven product growth as a founding engineer—doubling revenue and boosting engagement through feature work and data-driven UX—and improved engineering throughput by automating tests and reporting at enterprise scale. He’s comfortable across the full lifecycle: architecting APIs, writing comprehensive tests, and deploying containerized services, and brings hands-on blockchain expertise from MLH and Solana bootcamps to public-facing dApps. Notably, he combines deep technical chops with user-centered thinking—optimizing interfaces and onboarding flows that measurably increased adoption.
