Paul Molluzzo is an engineering manager and full‑stack web developer with 13 years of experience building APIs, storefronts, and international e‑commerce integrations across Node, Java, and Rails stacks.

His background founding a mobile-first web app and freelancing for retail and tech clients gives him a strong appreciation for business goals and cross-functional delivery.
