Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Nguyen is a pragmatic full-stack web developer and lead software developer with nine years of experience building performant client sites and backend features using JavaScript, React, GraphQL, SQL, PHP and modern static-site tooling like Gatsby. He combines small-business sensibility—honed from years as a bicycle mechanic and salesperson—with a strong focus on measurable quality (striving for high Lighthouse scores) and real-world impact, such as diagnosing and fixing a multi-second SQL bottleneck for a local nonprofit. Comfortable across front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Svelte) and learning mobile with Dart/Flutter, he thrives in small teams and community-focused organizations. Michael’s atypical background in human biology and hands-on shop work informs a pragmatic, customer-centered approach to product decisions and support.
