Dario Russo | Full Stack Software Engineer Specializing in React & Express

I'm a web developer who loves building and discovering new things every day. I have experience in frontend (React.js, Next.js) and backend (Python, Express.js, MySQL) development, and I've worked on projects in the news and advertising sectors. When I'm not coding, I'm probably hanging out with my pet fish or gaming.

Frontend

With a strong foundation in React and Next.js, I excel in creating dynamic, responsive user interfaces that prioritise both performance and accessibility. My experience includes enhancing code reusability with design patterns, optimizing mobile-first experiences, and achieving 100% test coverage using Jest and Cypress.

Backend

As a backend engineer, I'm skilled in building robust, scalable REST APIs. My expertise in TypeScript, Express.js, and cloud platforms like GCP and AWS has enabled me to optimize API performance, automate deployment processes, and secure user data. I focus on modular architectures and best practices to reduce complexity and boost developer productivity.

Best Practices

Adhering to best practices is integral to my work, ensuring that every project I contribute to is efficient, secure, and maintainable. From implementing SOLID principles and design patterns to promoting a least privilege model, I'm committed to promoting industry standards that lead to high-quality, scalable applications and seamless team collaboration.

Continuous Learning

I'm dedicated to keeping my skills up to date in the fast-changing tech world. I regularly read books like High Performance Websites and REST API Design Rulebook to learn more and improve my work. This habit of continuous learning helps me stay sharp and ready to tackle new challenges with the latest knowledge.

Problem Solving

Problem-solving is at the core of my engineering approach. Whether it's reducing API response times, refactoring legacy code, or fixing critical security issues, I thrive on challenges that require analytical thinking and innovative solutions.
