Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMihai Badescu is a freelance software engineer with 13 years of experience specializing in front-end development, particularly React, and a track record of leading teams and projects for international clients. Based in Chiyoda, Japan, he has shifted between hands-on implementation and leadership roles—most notably guiding an off-shore team to launch Fast Retailing’s Customer Service project and improving UX and code quality on large cross-functional teams. He excels at practical problem solving, from automating tedious processes (reducing a week-long manual check to minutes) to crafting interactive data visualizations with D3.js. Comfortable across the stack, Mihai pairs visual design sensibilities (contributing UI and PDF layout improvements to open-source projects) with a rigor for maintainable code and developer practices. Always curious, he actively seeks challenging domains beyond front-end work to broaden his technical impact.
