Summary
Maxim Pekarsky is a senior full-stack product engineer with 11 years of experience building data-rich web applications and developer-focused products from prototype to production. Currently at Greenhouse and freelancing through Two Lines, he specializes in React/Next.js, TypeScript, and Rails, and has engineered performant UIs and data portals that visualize millions of rows while optimizing API shape, caching, and rendering. He’s shipped core features at Bonusly and Codecademy, pioneered integration testing practices, and authored hundreds of technical exercises and blog research pieces that bridge developer education and product engineering. A Recurse Center alum and maker of consumer and developer tools like Typerfast.com and Hackterms, he combines product sensibility with deep implementation chops—down to Rust experiments and three.js data visualizations—making him as comfortable iterating on UX components as on backend performance bottlenecks.
